SYMPTOMS
========

Lotus cc:Mail archives that contain embedded OLE objects in messages are not
properly migrated by the cc:Mail Archive Importer. The resulting messages
contain attachments rather than OLE links.

CAUSE
=====

OLE embedded objects are only supported by the cc:Mail Release 8 client.

RESOLUTION
==========

Change the OLE links back to normal attachments, or do not use the cc:Mail
Release 8 client.

STATUS
======

Microsoft acknowledges this to be a problem.
