The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for Windows, version 3.0b
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
Version 3.0b of Microsoft Mail for Windows does not correctly import or export a
folder with an extended character (such as the letter O with an umlaut) in the
filename. The folder appears to be saved correctly, but the filename is not
converted properly.
CAUSE
=====
The function responsible for converting extended characters does not convert
from CP850 (the MS-DOS code page for multi-lingual keyboard sets) to ANSI. As a
result, the extended characters are lost.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.0b of Microsoft Mail
for Windows. This problem was corrected in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for
Windows.
