SYMPTOMS
In versions 3.0 and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, when sending mail such that the number of recipients is greater than 200 (the exact number depends on the specific address list), the body of the message will be missing.



CAUSE
A boundary condition occurred when the message was slightly smaller than 8192 bytes that caused the Windows client to assume it had already processed the body text when it actually had not. This caused the body text to be lost.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 3.0 and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows. This problem was corrected in version 3.2a (which includes MSSFS.DLL version 3.2.0.4074).
