XADM: Exchange 2000 Does Not Handle RFC 1154 Long File Names from Outlook 97 ProperlyArticle ID: 295678 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q295678 SYMPTOMS
If you configure Microsoft Outlook 97 in Internet Only Mode (IMO) to use an Exchange 2000 server for the SMTP server, and you send a message that contains an attachment with a long file name, the attachment may not be sent correctly. The file name of the attachment may be truncated after the first space in the file name.
CAUSE
This problem can occur if Store.exe incorrectly parses the X-MS-Attachment: header when Store.exe parses the header of the e-mail message. To obtain the attachment name, the code obtains the line from the header, and then searches for the first space. Exchange 2000 appends "\0" (without the quotation marks) after that space, which truncates the file name.
