SYMPTOMS
========

When a Dec All-In-One user sends a message with a BP-15 attachment to a
Microsoft Exchange Server user, and that user forwards it to HP Openmail, the
Microsoft Exchange Server user gets a nondelivery report (NDR) claiming:
"Content Type Not Supported."

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, use BP-14 in the X.400 link options; that is,
disallow the BP-15 option.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange 4.0 U.S. Service
Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  " SERVPACK " (without the quotation marks)



MORE INFORMATION
================

This problem does not occur when you only use BP-14 in the X.400 link options.
Even with BP-15, the problem does not happen with messages that do not have an
attachment.
