SYMPTOMS
========
After you apply Microsoft Exchange Service Pack 2 to a Microsoft Exchange Server
running the Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Connector (IMC), the message body
of an incoming message might appear as an attachment.
CAUSE
=====
When MIME encoded messages are received by the IMC with a Content-Type of
Text/Plain and a parameter of Name= following it, the message body text is
converted to an attachment with the name given in the Name= parameter.
For example:
Date: 8 Aug 1996 12:56:10 -0400
From: "User One" <User1@your.domain.name.here.edu>
Subject: Mail test from QM
To: "My Friend" <myfriend@his.domain.name.here.com>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"; Name="Message Body"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Subject:Mail test
mail test from QM
When you open the message, the actual message body is in an attachment called
Message Body.
STATUS
======

version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange Service
Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word
