It was originally destined for DN:/o=Microsoft/ou=SITE/cn=Recipients/cn=Somebody§ (recipient number 1), and was to be redirected to . [MTA DISP:RESULT 20 136] (12) CAUSE ===== This problem occurs when the Microsoft Exchange information store receives a message from the message transfer agent (MTA) and detects that there are two MAPI properties for strings within the message that have conflicting code page IDs. The information store sends an NDR on the message because the discrepancy was encountered. This problem does not occur if the Russian Exchange client is used instead of the Russian Outlook client. This is because the Russian Outlook client includes four additional MAPI properties for the TNEF portion of the message, one of which is an additional string property containing a code page ID. RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For more information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the Latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange versions 5.0, 5.0 SP1, 5.0 SP2, 5.5, and 5.5 SP1. This problem was first corrected in Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 2. ====================================================================== Keywords : exc55sp2fix Technology : kbZNotKeyword6 kbExchangeSearch kbExchange500 kbExchange550 kbExchangeClientSearch kbZNotKeyword2 Version : WinNT:5.0,5.5 Issue type : kbbug Solution Type : kbfix ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
