SYMPTOMS
When you use Internet Mail from a Microsoft Exchange, version 4.0, Windows 95 client, the following error message may be displayed:

An error prevented processing the message to completion. The original message is contained in the attached text file MESSAGE.TXT.



CAUSE
This error message indicates that Internet Mail received a message or attachment that was corrupt, or in a format Internet Mail could not understand and decode. When this happens, Internet Mail saves the message as a separate file, called MESSAGE.TXT.



RESOLUTION
If you receive a message in a format that Internet Mail cannot decode, you should contact the sender for the format used, and obtain a decoder for that format. You can then use the decoder on the MESSAGE.TXT file, allowing you to successfully read the message.
