PC WRmt: Server with Net Name MSG Won't Download Address List

Microsoft Mail Remote 3.2

This article was previously published under Q132562

SYMPTOMS

If the server you are dialing in to has the network name of MSG, the Mail Remote for Windows client will not properly download the address list. Although the server reports the entire list was sent, the client only receives a 1-byte file.

CAUSE

The network name of MSG is the same as the type name for a message. This apparently causes the Mail Remote client to believe it is processing a message and not an address list. As a result, the remote client does not update the list.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
