What is BCC address
When the sender of the e-mail message decides to hide recipients from being aware of each other he can use BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) address field while editing the message.
The e-mail addresses put in BCC field are not stored inside message header set like regular “To:” or “CC:” fields.
This can cause the situation that POP3 mailbox will contain message without any recipient addresses specified. It means that the recipient was on BCC list.
Static addressing is not affected
There is no issue with static addressing offered by Narawen Inox POP3 Connector. It just grabs all the contents of mailbox and sends to target address regardless if the messages have any addressing information or not.
How to fix dynamic addressing for BCC addresses
For dynamic addressing Narawen Inox POP3 Connector must have valid recipient address available in order to route the mail properly.
Starting from version 5.2 SR2 this is supported by handling “x-rcpt-to” header added by some mail servers with hint what was the recipient e-mail address.
We recommend the upgrade to latest release to avoid problems with dynamic addressing caused by BCC field.

I own Polish version of HTC Touch Cruise. Unfortunatelly the manufacturer did not equip this device with Polish XT9 dictionary which makes on-screen keyboard very hard to use.
Today I found working solution for this problem. Member of XDA-Developers forum published great post about how to transplant keyboard software from HTC Diamond device.
Short instructions:
- Download and unzip gullum diamond keys.zip and gullum Polish Diamond keys.zip.
- Copy both CAB files to your HTC Touch Cruise
- Run and install both CAB files (device will do soft reset after each installation)
- At your device open Start / Settings / Input (Start / Ustawienia / Wprowadzanie tekstu)
- Select “Touch Diamond Keyboard” as input method.
- Click Options button.
- Select Polish as input language.
More keyboards containing XT9 dictionaries are available for download from XDA-Developers forum. There are: Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Finnish, Russian, Greek, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish.

Environment:
Cluster of multiple web servers (Microsoft IIS) connected through load balancer sharing ASP.NET session variables by using SQLServer mode of <sessionState> configuration.
Symptoms:
Session variables are randomly lost and recovered when switching between web servers. Depending on which web server handles the request session variables are different. Some web servers seems to share same set of variables. Others have different set of variables.
Reason:
All web site identifiers must be equal at all of web servers. They act as application identifier and each application have separate pool of session variables.
In my case five of six web servers had equal web site identifiers. The sixth server had different web site identifier. All requests redirected to it seen different session variables than accessible at other web servers.
To check web site identifier
- Open Start / Administrative Tools / Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
- Navigate to (server name) / Web Sites
- Switch right pane of console to Details view.
- You will see columns: Description, Identifier, State, Host header value, IP address, Port, SSL Port, Status
- Read web site identifier from column “Identifier”
- Verify if all web servers have equal web site identifier.
To change web site identifier
- Stop the web site (right click at IIS manager and select Stop, there is no need to stop entire IIS).
- Open command line console and change current directory to “C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts”.
- Run following command:
cscript adsutil.vbs move w3svc/currentid w3svc/newid
- where “currentid” is current web site identifier and “newid” is new web site identifier.
- Start the web site.

I’ve created a PureCM workspace for web site project. After starting up the site it turns out that all Polish characters are invalid. The site is made in UTF-8 and all files contains texts encoded this way.
The browser could not identify what kind of encoding is used. I’ve tried with ISO-8859-2 which is another possible standard for Polish characters.
No effects.
I’ve checked the file types reported by PureCM. For most of C# code files it was “text/plain” which we configured in repository with following options:
- File Type: text
- Selected “Disable writing of unicode identifier”
- Encoding: System Encoding
What does “System Encoding” mean for PureCM?
It turns out that it is a setting for “non-Unicode programs” which can be found in system’s Control Panel / Regional and Language Options / Advanced.
I’ve created the workspace at new PureCM installation at computer running English Windows version and thas setting was “English” by default.
To solve the problem I did following steps:
- Opened Control Panel
- Opened Regional and Language Options
- Clicked to Advanced tab
- Selected “Polish” as Language for non-Unicode programs.
- Rebooted the computer.
- Deleted the PureCM workspace.
- Created PureCM workspace.
