XFOR: IMC: UUEncoded Non-TNEF Embedded Messages are Translated into the Recipient Domain's Character Set

ID: Q163789

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0

SUMMARY

The Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector (IMC) and Internet Mail Service (IMS) will perform character set translation on an embedded message within a UUEncoded non-TNEF message as specified for the recipient domain. This is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

The IMC and IMS converts the embedded message because Transport Neutral Encoding Format (TNEF) is not specified. To ensure the message becomes encapsulated and is not translated, use TNEF encoding to send the embedded message.
