Recently, customers reported on the BlackBerry mobile phone forwarding Exchange 2010 mail, the Internet users receive messages garbled.
Environment:
BES 5.0.3
Exchange Server 2010 is not patched
Finally, it turns out that the client's Exchange 2010 server needs to change the configuration, not the BlackBerry issue at all.
Phenomenon:
BlackBerry on the forward rich text of the Chinese mail to the external mailbox, the external network mailbox display garbled.
Reason:
East Citi adds a "disclaimer" on the Exchange server with a transport rule, the text of the disclaimer contains Chinese, and the server's encoding is UTF-8.
The text of the rich message that the user creates in the Outlook client is in Chinese, and the encoding is gb2312.
When the Exchange Server transport sends a message, it mixes the two above to produce garbled characters.
Workaround:
Tip: Back up the file before you modify it. You may need to restart the Exchange server and the BlackBerry server after saving your changes.
Modify: Modify the \program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\bin\edgetransport.exe.config file for the Exchange server
Add <addkey= "Disabledetectencodingfrommetatag" value= "true"/>
Applicable environment:
Exchange, SP1
