Issues that this hotfix package fixes

  • Assume that you are the delegate for another user, and both of you have the Personal Archive feature enabled. You right-click the user’s mailbox, then click Properties, and then you click the Policy tab. Not all content is displayed correctly.

  • When you move an email message by dragging it over a folder, the color that the folder changes to is difficult to distinguish from the other folders.

  • Consider the following scenario:

    • A default signature is set and added automatically to outgoing messages.

    • The Open replies and forwards in a new window option is disabled. Note To disable this option, click the File tab, click Options, select Mail in the Outlook Options dialog box, clear the Open replies and forwards in a new window check box in the Replies and forwards section

    • You try to reply or forward a Rich Text email message in the inline reply window, and your signature is added automatically to the email body.

    • An attempt to reply or forward a Rich Text email message in the inline reply window is made, and the signature is added automatically to the email body.

    • An attachment is inserted to the ActiveInlineResponse object by using the Attachments.Add method.

    In this scenario, the email body reverts to the original email message. In other words, both the signature and the reply or forward header are deleted.
