SYMPTOMS
========
The Microsoft Mail Windows client version 3.2 or newer running under Windows NT
3.51 will not delete files on a postoffice located on a Novell server's volume
if filescan rights are not assigned.
CAUSE
=====
Windows NT will perform a search command on the file before deleting or erasing
the file. The search command will reply a failure and the operating system will
not perform the delete or erase command causing the file to become stranded.
WORKAROUND
==========
Assign filescan rights to Microsoft Mail Windows client users operating under
Windows NT.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT 3.51.
A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully regressions tested and
should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Contact
Microsoft Technical Support for more information.
