SYMPTOMS
========
When you create a new folder in version 3.0, 3.0b, or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for
Windows, the following error may occur:
This name or comment is too long. Type a shorter name or comment.
CAUSE
=====
Mail for Windows allows a maximum folder name of 127 characters. The new
folder's Name field does not prevent you from typing names longer than 127
characters, but Mail displays the error message when you choose OK.
RESOLUTION
==========
Devise a folder name of 127 or fewer characters and choose OK to create the
folder.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2 of
Microsoft Mail for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
