SYMPTOMS
Microsoft Mail Gateway to MHS displays a /u (with an umlaut) and a blank subject line on an incoming MHS message.

This problem is caused by the Notification-Correlator field. It is not in the SMF-70 specification governing MHS, and the gateway is not designed to handle it.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Mail Gateway to MHS version 3.0.
