SYMPTOMS
Messages sent from Microsoft Mail to Exchange through the Microsoft Mail Connector interchange (MSMI) using a Japanese Outlook client fail to be delivered to their destination. The sender receives a non-delivery report (NDR) similar to the following:

  Your Message

To:     'someone@microsoft.com' Subject: Test Message From Kanji Outlook/MSMail

Was not delivered for the following reasons:

Delivery failed to MS:MICROSOFT/DOGHOUSE/SOMEONE Reason: 0 (transfer failed) diagnostic: -1 (no diagnostic). MSEXCH:MSExchangeMTA:DogHouse:PAUL11.

Original message body follows...

The following events are logged in the event log when the message results in an NDR:

       Event ID:   2025 Source:    MSExchangeIS Private Description: The delivery of a message failed due to error 80004005. A non- delivery report is being sent to the message's originator.

It was originally destined for DN:/o=Microsoft/ou=DogHouse/cn=Recipients/cn=Someone (recipient number 1), and was to be redirected to. [MTA DISP:RESULT 20 136] (12)



CAUSE
This problem occurs when the Microsoft Exchange information store receives the message from the MTA and detects that there are two MAPI Properties for strings within the message that have conflicting code page IDs. The information store sends an NDR on the message because the discrepancy was encountered.

This problem does not occur if the Kanji Exchange client is used instead of the Kanji Outlook client. This is because the Kanji Outlook client includes four additional MAPI Properties for the TNEF portion of the message, one of which is an additional string property containing a code page ID.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For more information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
