  • Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0

This article was previously published under Q161839

SYMPTOMS

Under certain circumstances, messages sent from a Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector (IMC) appear to have been sent 13 hours in the future.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. Most occurrences of this problem were fixed in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 Service Pack 4. However, this problem may still occur with inbound messages that are not in Rich Text Format (RTF) after Service Pack 4 is applied. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):

  • The time zone setting on the server is set to "(GMT+1200) Wellington, Auckland".

  • The "Automatically adjust clock for daylight saving changes" check box is selected.

  • It is daylight saving time in the country where the IMC is located.
