ampersand in subject prevents e-mail from being read using exchange web server

[Rob Erwin]

Hi,

I have an e-mail which I sent which has an ampersand in
the subject, now I can't view it from my sent items, and
others can't read the e-mail. We're using the exchange
server and accessing it via an intranet connection through
a web browser.

Thanks,
Rob

Have you run the IIS lockdown tool on the Exchange server, in particular the
URLScan part as this will disable specific characters found in the Subject
Line (Usually produces a error on 404)
