Just upgraded from OL2K to OL2k3 and found out that the hyperlinks to the
subject of items in public folders no longer work when characters like /
has been replaced with %2F or \ with %5C or - with %2d.
Notifications to specific items posted in public folders are generated with
Echange 5.5 Scripting that includes a hyperlink to the item like:
<outlook://Public Folders/All Public Folders/MyFolder/~mymessage Subject>
This works and opens the item if the subject has no special characters like
a : or / or \. In OL2K replacing / in the subject with %2F in the hyperlink
would open the message. In OL2K3 if you replace spaces in the hyperlink
with %20 it still works but replacing other characters like a - or / with
its hexadecimal value no longer works.
Any idea on how to resolve this.
Thanks
