Outlook 98 to Outlook Web Access

[MT]

Believe it or not, I still have a number of mail clients that use Outlook 98.

My problem scenario is as follows:

User 1 sends an email from OWA to User 2 who receives the message in OL98.
The OL98 user replies and the message is received by the OWA user but the
content is unreadable.

The characters ÿþ are being added to Messages from OWA when outlook 98
client either replies or forwards a message. When the message is received it
appears corrupt.

I use Exchange 2003 SP2.


I know OL98 is not supported anymore, but does anymore have any ideas on how
to fix this?

Note that a Exchange 2003 CAL allows you to install Outlook 2003 for that
client.

Is this for every Outlook 98 client?
Have you verified the Encoding set on the message?

Thanks for replying

I will be doing a phased move to OL2003 shortly, however I still need to
sort it.

It is consistent across all Outlook 98 clients and can be recreated.

Any ideas?
