Hi
Wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem. We currently run Exchange Server 5.5 with SP3 on Windows NT 4.0. We have, over the last couple of weeks, started to migrate to a new Server running Windows 2000 and Exchange Server 5.5 with SP4. In order to achieve this we set up a site connector between the two servers, migrated mailboxes and distribution lists to the new server (using a migration tool from Automation-specialists), and the migrations appear to have been successful. We route our mail through our original server using The Internet Mail Connector, and as of yet have not set it up on our new server. Our problem is as follows:

Over the past few days many of the attachments sent to our clients have either been corrupted on arrival or have been stripped of the attachment on arrival. We have narrowed the problem down to clients who use Lotus Notes (attachments arrive with a title of C.dtf). We can resolve it by specifying client domains in the IMC, and then by disallowing rtf mail to those clients. This, however, never happened previously, and it seems odd that we should now have to go through this administrative process.

IS it coincidence that this has occurred subsequent to mail migration, or is there something simple that we can do to remedy the problem?

Thanks for the help.
