SUMMARY
When you are using a Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client and you cancel
the addition of a Personal Folder located on a Windows 95 or Windows 3.x
share, a 0 byte file will be left on the share.
STATUS
Windows NT 3.51 has a bug in which the GetOpenFileName() call will leave a
0 byte file if the file does not exist and was supposed to be located on a
Windows 95 or Windows 3.x share. When the process of creating a PST is
completed, normally Microsoft Exchange will delete the 0 byte file and
create the correct PST file. Canceling this process before completion
leaves the 0 byte file intact. This problem will not occur in a Microsoft
Exchange Service Pack 2 Windows NT client running on Windows NT version
4.0.
