Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): WINDOWS:5.5SP1
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Outlook Web Access, version 5.5 Service Pack 1 
- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

You may receive the following error message in the Microsoft Outlook Web Access
(OWA) client when you attempt to open a message:

  Failed to open this message.
  Your message does not exist in this folder. It may have been deleted.

WORKAROUND
==========

If Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) is on a different system than the
Exchange Server computer, Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1) will also
need to be installed on the IIS server. The OWA component installed on the IIS
server will then be upgraded to SP1.
