XCLN: Importing 3.x Folders Textizes Meeting Requests (146693)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Client 4.0
  • Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 4.0

This article was previously published under Q146693

SYMPTOMS

When you import an MMF that was exported from MSMail 3.x and contains Microsoft Schedule+ meeting requests, the meeting requests do not appear as a form like they did in MSMail 3.x. When the Schedule+ appointments are imported, they become textized and no longer are displayed as a form. The meeting request shows up in the Microsoft Exchange client with the From, Sent, To, and Subject lines along with any text that was in the meeting request.

MORE INFORMATION

This only happens during the import of an MSMail MMF file. If the MMF file is migrated to a PST file, the meeting requests are transferred correctly. During the process of importing the MMF file, the Schedule+ meeting request message type is set to IPM.Note so that when you view the meeting request in the Microsoft Exchange client, it appears as a plain text message.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 4.0, of Microsoft Exchange. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
