XWEB: You Cannot Delete Messages and NDRs with a Space at the End of the Subject Line (328822)

SYMPTOMS

You may not be able to use Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) to open, reply to, forward, or delete a message in your Exchange 2000 mailbox. You may receive the following error message in the browser:

The page cannot be found

The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Internet Information Services

However, if you use Microsoft Outlook, you can successfully open, reply to, forward, or delete the message.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because OWA does not permit you to open, reply to, forward, or delete a message with a space at the end of the subject line. The message can be a typical mail message or a non-delivery report (NDR).
