APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Standard Edition
This article was previously published under Q173807
SYMPTOMS
If you are using Netscape Navigator version 4.02 against an Exchange Server
5.5 computer, you will find that Netscape stops when it attempts to list
folders within a folder that has a very long title (more than 250 characters). This
behavior is also true for Simeon Mail version 4.1.1.
CAUSE
You might think there is a problem with the Exchange Server computer, when
in fact the problem is with the Netscape client. When you click the Message
Center button, Netscape performs an IMAP list "" "/%" instead of the IMAP
list "" "*" as it traverses down the folder tree. When Netscape tries to
construct a list "" "/%" to see whether the long folder name has any
subfolders, Netscape stops.
STATUS
This problem occurs when you use Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 and Netscape
Navigator 4.02.
This problem occurs when you use Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 and Simeon
Mail 4.1.1.
