SYMPTOMS
When you shut down Windows 95 with the Microsoft Exchange client running and mail in the Outbox, there is no dialog box asking you to exit Microsoft Exchange.



CAUSE
Typically, when you perform an Exit and Log Off from Microsoft Exchange while there is mail in the Outbox, the Microsoft Exchange client will display the following message:

  There is still mail in your Outbox; exit anyway? Yes/No

However, when you choose to shut down Windows 95 with mail in the Outbox, the Microsoft Exchange client will not display this dialog. This is due to a deadlocking condition with Windows 95 and Microsoft Exchange. Because of this, the Microsoft Exchange client cannot prompt the user during shutdown.

This is by design.
