APPLIES TO

This article was previously published under Q159286

SYMPTOMS

There are two symptoms caused by the same problem; the symptom you see depends on how the message is sent from the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client.

Messages sent with an AppleSingle file attachment and no other text get stuck in the IMC Outbound Delivery Queue. The sender does not receive a non- delivery receipt (NDR).

Messages sent with an AppleSingle file attachment without a resource fork, such as a text file created with the Teach Text application, generate the following error message:

Event ID: 4081
Source: MSExchangeIMC
Type: Error
Category: SMTP Interface
Description: Message could not be processed

CAUSE

The Internet Mail Connector (IMC) omits one carriage return/line feed sequence (CRLF).

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange 4.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
