SUMMARY
If you try to create a channel in Exchange 2000 Server by using Microsoft Management Console (MMC) where the channel name does not begin with a number sign (#), you receive the following error message:
This behavior is by design, because the Exchange 2000 chat service no longer supports the Microsoft Internet Chat (MIC) protocol. All channel names must be Internet Relay Chat (IRC) or Internet Relay Chat Protocol (IRCX) compliant, and must begin with a #.
