SYMPTOMS
On a Fujitsu computer that has the e-mail Message Indicator Object feature, the feature may not function after you upgrade the computer to Windows 2000.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the call to the Application Programming Interface (API) is returned as Failed by the operating system. The call, SetMessageWaitingIndicator, is supported in Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition (Me) but not in Windows 2000.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
The &quot;Designed for Windows&quot; logo program recommends that personal computers display a &quot;message waiting&quot; indicator to let the user know that the computer has downloaded an e-mail message, a voice message, or a fax.
