Additionally, you configure the Microsoft Office Outlook client in Microsoft Exchange Server mode. When you use Outlook to open an e-mail message that contains a PDF attachment from an external mail system, you receive the following error message:
Note This problem occurs only in Exchange 2003 SP2. You can open the PDF attachment as expected before security update 931832 is installed.
