Timestamp in Messenger Express Received Column

Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the date/timestamp in the message list in the Messenger Express Received column from 24 hour format to 12 hour format? So instead of "16:23" , it would say "4:33 pm"...
Many thanks...

When you first installed it, that was a choice. I suspect that there's a configutil setting. It's not for each user, but is global.
No time to chase it down, today, sorry. I'll be gone all next week, too.

Date Format in received column

Hi guys, does anybody knows how to change the date format of the received column of the mails in the messenger express (6.1).
We speak spanish and we usually use the date in this format dd/mm/yyyy.
Thanks sincerely,
Andr�s.

That should be one of the things under "settings". I dont' have a Spanish version handy to check, though.

Cannot open certain messages in Messenger Express

We have a user who cannot open certain sent messages - I reconstructed her mailbox to no avail - I also copied the messages to my mailbox and reconstructed, I also couldn't open them.
Once one of the problem msgs is clicked, every message becomes unreadable, it seems to break the javascript function (javascript:parent.M(n)) which is responsible for popping up msg windows for reading.
Re-logging in, or a refresh fixes. Until one is clicked again.
My Firebug debugger shows:
an "unterminated literal string" error and references this for example:
'Dear Mr. Smith: \nHere are some of the content encoding headers from two msgs. One of these had a Word doc attached, one doesn't seem to have any attachments.

Thanks for clarifying on the encoding vs charset and for the other reference in these forums.
The client is listed as:
X-Mailer: Sun Java(tm) System Messenger Express 6.3-5.02 (built Oct 12 2007; 32bit)
I was told this particular user used Safari... could that influence the transfer-encoding? Or is ME messing up?
I'm not sure it's possible - but might he have created this in ME from an already received, but messed up message (e.g. one w/ the quoted-printable encoding)? In ME it seems he wouldn't be able to open these for editing.
The X-Mailer header is in the first set of headers,
The second set contains the multi-part - printed quotable and in-line enclosed (as opposed to attached) Word .doc.
Here are the full headers (this is a sent message from the send folder):

Error interpreting the mail server response in Messenger Express

Background:
Migrated from Sparc running iMS 6.0 to Linux running iMS 6.3 (from CommSuite 5)
Problem:
Some users, some times experience problems using Messenger Express. They receive the following error in their web browsers: Error interpreting the mail server response.
Attempted solutions:
1) 120230-20 -- no change in behavior
2) reconstruct -r -- didn't fix the issue
3) Support case with Sun -- tech seems to be guessing as a solution and not trying to troubleshoot the issue (growing frustration -- those I am here)
Data gathered:
I turned on the telemetry logging for this user and in the end of the imap session, I see:
0.002>)F OK Completed
<30.747<C UNSELECT
0.003>C OK CompletedNETWORK ERROR: Connection reset by peer
LOGOUT <username> 2007/7/17 8:46:07 - 2007/7/17 8:48:15
This seems to come and go (working sometimes and not working others) for a few (5 or so) users, though, I haven't found any correlation between the users or how they differ from anyone else. Checking email via POP or IMAP works fine (just not via Messenger express).
What else can I look at?

Hi,
Shane...thank you so much. <refrains from bashing Sun
Support at this point>I should point out that myself and Jay are also Sun Support (we answer forum questions in our spare time).
We have a valid support contract and the tech has
never indicated that he has done any research into
this issue -- he only keeps throwing out ideas based
off of nothing. I asked him what he knows about the
mentioned bug. awaiting response.I couldn't comment on this without looking at the case notes.
<pushing my luck> Is there anything I can provide you
which would help diagnose this? Based off of the
logs (snips i provided u before), it does indeed
seem to be related to the email
headers...specifcially headers SpamAssassin added.What's the Sun support case #? Have you provided the full logs (rather then just snips) to the support engineer?
Thanks again -- you're doing a great job.All part of the service.
Regards,
Shane.

Messenger Express: How do I add the Directory Server to the address book search tool?

In Messenger Express (ME) how do I add the Directory Server (DS) to the address book
search tool?

Edit the globals.pl file. Look for a line similar to: 
@dirservers = ('MyCompany::phonebook.foo.com::o=FooCorp.,c=US','Four11 Directory::ldap.four11.com::');

Add an entry to the list. The list is comma delimited and each entry is a
string. The string contains three fields, delimited by a double colon (::). The
first field is the name you want to appear in the User Interface (UI). The second is
the hostname of the DS and the third is the Distinguished Name (DN) to use when searching.

Please note, Messenger Express is part of the Messaging Server. For more
information on Messenger Express, please see the release notes at
http://home.netscape.com/eng/server/MExpress/relnotes.htm

You can't add a new contact to specific group and there is no app for this. 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone APIs with security concerns being a primary reason, which such a function would require.

Is there a way to customise format of received column in Outlook 2013?

I'm using Outlook 2013 on one machine.
I's like to change the date format in an email collection view to something that suits me. (Say in a Received column.)
There is a humorously named advanced settings widget, that gives me a range of preselected formats. (Including something called "Best Fit".) This however doesn't let me define my own formats.
Is there a facility that enables me define what I want?
Maybe defining a new registry key.
System wide settings (short and long date) are not the answer I'm looking for.
(In code I can define dates, where is that in Outlook?)

Hi,
May I know what format you want it to be? For example, "m/d/yyyy" or others?
Actually I have found a lot of other formats beside the "Best Fit", none of them fits your need?
As you may have found in Outlook, we can customize the view to change how the time or date is displayed from the
Format dropbox, as I know, it's always based on your Windows’ defaults. There's no such registry key to modify this that I can find.

Can't see more than 100 search results in Messenger Express 5.2

Hi,
I am experiencing some unusual problems in the Web interface, Messenger Express. One of our users has discovered that when a search is carried out against a mailbox, only the 1st 100 results appear. No navigation bars get added to the search result page, which stops you browsing through the search results.
Has anyone else noticed this, and perhaps come up with a way around it? Have I missed some important config option?
Yours Sincerely,
jt

John, I believe this was fixed in one of the many hotfixes released since the original 5.2 release. You don't indicate which version of 5.2 you're on, so. ..
I'd either open up a tech support case, and get hotfix 1.24, or at least download 5.2p1, and apply that. 5.2p1 corresponds to 5.2hf0.9, so we've come quite a ways since then.

Sending long filename attachments using Messenger Express

Every time I send a long filename attachment using messenger express (iMS5.1) the file gets truncated when opening via Eudora 5.1. Qualcomm say it is a server problem, but I can't find any documentation that suggests how to check this.
For example I send, The file name ThisIsALongFileNameText File.doc
Eudora Returns:
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="ThisIsALongFileNameText"
File.doc"

Javascript error under IE 6 on System Messenger Express 6.1

Hi ,
I am using messaging server System Messenger Express 6.1 (2005Q1) for providing webmail service. It support en and zh-TW language.
There are no problem on the webmail under english language version. However when user change his preferred language to zh-TW, after he login to the webmail and click the address book link, it has no problem on the first time access.
However when user visit other link such as Inbox and then go back to the Address book page, it encounter the following error and no display on the screen.
Line: 10
Char: 35
Error: Unterminated string constant
Code: 0
URL: http://hostname /zh-TW/pab_fs.html?&security=false&lang=zh-TW&charset=escaped_unicode
Line: 16
Char: 3
Error: 'main' is not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://hostname/zh-TW/pab_fs.html?&security=false&lang=zh-TW&charset=escaped_unicode
I have tried the same scenario in firefox and IE 5, it does not have the error above. I think user mostly will use the IE6 for browsing. Anyone has idea on it?
Thanks

One of many bugs in 6.1. Suggest upgrading to at least 6.2. Please note, 6.3 was released last week.
6.1 to 6.2 is as easy as applying several patches:
You will need to patch any JES componants that are on the same box, and the "shared componants". See the 6.2 documentation for how to upgrade.

How to add an Addressbook Entry to Messenger Express with bind needed

Hallo,
I wan't to add a User defined Directory Lookup to the Messenger Express as described in the
"Messenger Express Customization Guide" on Page 60 and up.
An Anonymouse Search over a LDAP-Server is no problem, but i need to bind first.
In the documentation is a note:
Code Example 3-21 will work only if anonymous reads are allowed
on the DN ou=People,o=florizel.com. Otherwise to bind to the
host florizel.com, you need to provide the values for binddn and
bindpwd in the ldap.msc file.
The mentioned file "ldap.msc" doesn't exists.
(The installed Version is Sun ONE Messaging Server 6.0)
Thanks for your Help

Hmmm,
ok. I try to explain.
- I wan't to add an Addressbook in Messenger Express.
(Addresses -> Search)
- Search request can only be done when bind to that
LDAP-Server. (No anonymous)
- The Documentation gives a hint -> add binddn & bindpw
to ldap.msc , but does not explain that ! (p.60 ff)
Best Regards

Messenger Express: Problem authenticating using fully qualified user name - userID@domain

I'm installing iPS SP3a with iMS 5.1, iDS 4.16, iCS 5.0P4... (Sun ONE Starter Kit) on Solaris 8 plataform.
When I access the page for Messenger Express, with a non-default domain, (login: userID@domain) http://<server> a black box with script running down it and the page is then left white with a message:
Loading: Please wait...
and with url:
http://<hostname>/my-domain/en/mail.html?sid=hes6bu6s3n35qm0&lang=en&cert=false
If I edit the url and delete my-domain, all work fine (http://<hostname>/en/mail.html?sid=hes6bu6s3n35qm0&lang=en&cert=false)
I created into <path to iMS>/msg-hostname/html/ a directory with same name of my-domain and copied the "default files and directories" of
<path to iMS>/msg-hostname/html/
to
<path to iMS>/msg-hostname/html/my-domain/
I followed the documentation and modified the "<path to iMS>/msg-hostname/html/main.js" file.
then, I restart all services (../start-msg )
It don't work and... I continue seeing the same message:
Loading: Please wait...
There is some bug in iMS 5.1 with which it does that the Messenger Express does not work when is
used several domain ?
Somebody can help me ???
Thanks in advice.

Hi,
I think your issue is related to iMS, Please post your query in iMS forums.

Displaying Forwarded Messages in Messenger Express

One of my users noted that when they forward a message that was sent to multiple recipients, the forwarded message, as displayed in Messenger Express, suppresses the display of the list of users that the original message went to. I've tested this by forwarding a message that originally went to multiple recipients to myself. I would then view the message in Messenger Express and in a standard IMAP client. The IMAP client DOES display the list of original recipients, but Messenger Express only displays the original message.
I've looked through the user "Options" section in Messenger Express and see no setting to modify this behavior. I've also logged into Delegated Admin as the user to see if there were options there, but found nothing. And, finally, I logged into Delegated Admin as the administrative user and checked the global settings for the domain, but again found no option to prevent this suppression. Has anyone else run into this?

First of all, my name is Dan, and I'm working with Mark on this problem.
Secondly, I'll concede a semantic point that the headers aren't mangled, technically speaking...they have been completely dismembered from the message. You are correct in stating that they are not there. Semantic points aside, the problem remains.
It's obvious that webmail can show headers for a single forwarded message, because the headers show up the first time a message is forwarded...so its not that webmail doesn't know how to display any headers...it just ignores headers for nested forwarded or replied messages.
The reason this is a bug is because the header information is actually there...in other words, if you look at the very same message with any fat client (such as Eudora, Mozilla, Outlook, etc.) all of the header information is intact. It's only when viewing the message through webmail that the header information is ignored (on all but the first of the multi-part MIME parts).
By any definition, this is a bug in how webmail is rendering message data that is actually intact. The case should never have been closed in the first place, and the RFE should never have been created because the request was not for a feature enhancement. This is a bug, and it needs a fix.

Outlook/Messenger Express Problem

Hi,
We have been having a problem with Outlook and Messenger Express for quite a while and are wondering if anyone can shed some light.
Basically the problem is this:
If I use Outlook to compose and send a message in HTML format with an attachment and then the user replies back to me via Messenger Express, any one of the following happens:
1) if the user is using Internet Explorer and is replying back in HTML format, I see the text of the user's reply but not my original message. However, I can see a portion of my original message if I have autopreview enabled.
2) if the user is using Firefox or IE and is replying back in plain text format, the only thing I see in Outlook is my original message. If, however, I have autopreview enabled, I can see a portion of the person's reply there.
This is a problem that's been plaguing us for months and are wondering if anyone has any idea how to go about "fixing" this.
By the way, I'm using Outlook 2003 and am running Sun JES Messaging Server 6.1.
Thanks!

Jay,
Thanks for the link. Do you know if there's a fix for this? All the article does is state that there's a problem that applies to Outlook 2000/2002/2003 and that Microsoft knows about it; there's no information as to how to about resolving this issue, be it through patching Outlook or some other means.
Personally, I think that it's ridiculous that Microsoft has known about this problem for almost one year (or, has acknowledged this problem publically for almost a year) and yet has not updated the article with a fix or a workaround.
Thanks,
Razi

Install System Messenger Express 6.1 ?

Hello, is it possible to install System Messenger Express 6.1 on Windows XP?
Thank you

peglomaniac wrote:
Ok thanks for that. Can I trouble you once more... do you know if Messenger Express acknowledges and sends back read receipts?I don't have a Messenger Express 6.1 install any more to confirm. Messenger Express 6.2 does provide read receipt functionality. Note however that the user gets a "Receipt requested. Send acknowledgment?" pop-up so acknowledging the email is voluntary.

SMTP ERROR in Messenger Express

This is iMS 5.2.
You compose a message in messenger express, click send then a greeted by a small popup window with the comtents that simply read "SMTP ERROR". In the http log (/msg-luke/log/http/http) you find:
[12/Jul/2002:15:18:26 -0500] luke httpd[15226]: General Notice: lebond[192.168.1.6] created message <[email protected]>

in /msg-luke/log/imta/tcp_local_slave.log-0GZ5007IZKEKA8
15:18:20.74: SMTP routine failure from SMTPC_ENQUEUE
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not convinced that these two log entries are related, could be, but I do not think so right now.
In configutil have you defined, service.http.smtphost? If not, the default, then it is set to localhost. Can you telnet localhost 25?
If you get a response on port 25 on the same machine then I would increase the log level of the MTA and try from webmail again. It is upsetting that the webmail client does not give you more of an error message, it really should.
