SYMPTOMS
You may experience either of the following symptoms:
- When an Internet Mail Access Protocol version 4 (IMAP4) client attempts to send a message to an Exchange Server computer using the APPEND command and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) authentication, the client may stop responding (hang). This problem is known to occur with Netscape Messenger version 4.5, but it may also occur with other clients.
- After an IMAP4 client connects to an Exchange Server computer, the server may end the connection unexpectedly, or may not end the connection in situations where it should.
CAUSE
These problems can occur for the following reasons:
- If the server obtains the end of the message and a carriage return/line feed (CR/LF) during a single read, the CR/LF may be ignored, and therefore it is not decrypted. This causes the client to stop responding.
- The server may not properly increment or decrement the counters associated with the receive chain length.
