IBM WorkPad - Patch for synchronization failure of emails with large recipient list
Applicable to: World-Wide
|
P/N
emailupd |
Description
This update is intended for current WorkPad Desktop software v3.0 users who have experienced problems with Email HotSync. This update corrects a situation where the HotSync process will fail while trying to synchronize email messages with a very large number of recipients. The exact number of email recipients that will trigger the problem depends on the mail system being used.
This update replaces the Email conduit file on the desktop. The new email conduit will correctly detect those email messag es with a significant number of recipients. In these cases, the message "(The content of this field was too large. The entire e-mail is available in your E-Mail application.)" will be transferred to the WorkPad organizer in place of the distribution l ist itself.
Usage Note: When reading email messages on the WorkPad organizer, the message headers are normally not displayed. To show them, tap on the Show Header icon in the upper-right corner. This shows all of the message recipients. |
