SYMPTOMS
When you create a new folder in version 3.0, 3.0b, or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows, the following error may occur:
CAUSE
Mail for Windows allows a maximum folder name of 127 characters. The new folder's Name field does not prevent you from typing names longer than 127 characters, but Mail displays the error message when you choose OK.
RESOLUTION
Devise a folder name of 127 or fewer characters and choose OK to create the folder.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
