SYMPTOMS
When you send a message written in a Cyrillic (KOI8-R) language, and then another person receives the message, the properties for the message may indicate that a different language was used. This problem frequently occurs when Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 is installed on the Microsoft Exchange Server computer.



CAUSE
Microsoft Exchange Server does not properly handle messages written in Cyrillic (KOI8-R) languages. The Cyrillic (KOI8-R) character set is installed by Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0.
