SYMPTOMS
========

After you upgrade from Microsoft Windows NT version 3.51 to Microsoft Windows NT
version 4.0, right-clicking on Inbox and then clicking on Properties has no
effect.

CAUSE
=====

During the initial installation of the Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, the
installer does not copy the file Mlshext.dll, the file that gives the Exchange
client right-click functionality.

WORKAROUND
==========

Reinstall the Microsoft Exchange client after the upgrade to Windows NT version
4.0.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Windows NT
client, versions 4.0 and 5.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
