XFOR: Multiple "Text/Plain" Body Parts Combined by Default |
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5
SUMMARY
When you send a message that contains multiple "text/plain" body parts to a
Microsoft Exchange Server computer, the body parts are combined into a
single body part by default. Combining the body parts may prevent the
server from verifying the full fidelity of the message. However, you cannot
modify this default behavior.
MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft recognizes the need for people to modify the default behavior of
an Exchange Server computer when it processes messages with multiple
"text/plain" body parts. We have added an AppendTextBodies registry value
with a data type of REG_DWORD under the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS
\ParametersSystem\InternetContent
NOTE: The above registry key is one path; it has been wrapped for
readability.
This value allows you to modify the default behavior of the server. If the
registry value is set to 0, every "text/plain" body part is converted to an
attachment, unless it is the first body part in a Multipurpose Internet
Mail Extensions (MIME) message. This is the default value for this registry
value. If the registry value is set to a value greater than 0, all
"text/plain" body parts that meet the following criteria are combined into
a single body part:
- The body part is not labeled as an attachment.
- The body part's character set matches the character set of the body
parts that have already been combined.
This feature is included in the latest Microsoft Exchange Server version
5.5 U.S. Service Pack. For information about obtaining the Service Pack,
