SYMPTOMS
========

When messages are sent through the X.400 connector to the Wang Office Gateway
using 1984 mode, delivery and read receipts are not provided.

CAUSE
=====

According to the Red Book, page 198, table 3/X.420 Column B, the receipt
envelope that contains the original Encoded Information Types (EIT) should be
unspecified and the protocol should be absent. This is not the case with
Microsoft Exchange Server.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
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
