XFOR: Incorrect Date on Message Sent Through Lotus cc:Mail Connector

ID: Q192595

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

When you send a message through the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus cc:Mail and then the cc:Mail recipient views the message, the date on the message may appear incorrectly.

For example, if the message is sent on January 1, 2000, the date appears as "1/1/1900" (without quotation marks) instead of "1/1/2000." Note that this problem also occurs when an Exchange Server recipient receives a message through the Exchange Connector for Lotus cc:Mail, and then views the message in an e-mail client.

This problem only occurs when you are using Import.exe version 8.0 and a DB8 cc:Mail post office.
