SYMPTOMS
If you resend a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail by using Outlook (a Messaging Application Programming Interface [MAPI] client), the message ID in the SMTP mail that you resent may be the same as the message ID in the original SMTP mail.

NOTE: This behavior is different than the behavior in Exchange Server version 5.5. In Exchange Server 5.5, if you use Outlook to resend an SMTP mail, Exchange Server 5.5 uses a unique message ID for the resent message.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the message ID is not modified when Outlook resends the original SMTP mail.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

MORE INFORMATION
