The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
A message created by Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) with an attachment but no
body, may be rejected as undeliverable by a foreign X.400 system. If a similar
message is created by using Microsoft Outlook 2000, it is successfully accepted
by the foreign system.
CAUSE
=====
When you use CDO to create a message that contains an attachment, but no body,
the PR_BODY field appears to be null. When this is converted to X.400 format, a
P2_IA5Text body part is created with a hexadecimal value of 16 00. The "00" may
cause the receiving foreign X.400 system to assume that the message is
malformed, and reject it.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5.
