Diamondas,

Did you resolve this issue? We are experiencing the same problem.  In our 
environment users have Outlook 2003.  Exchange 2007 is being introduced 
gradually. SMTP messages containing tabs arrive correctly where user's 
Exchange Server is 2003.  Anyone migrated to Exchange 2007 find the SMTP 
messages have tabs translated to a random number of spaces.  The problem only 
appears to affect incoming SMTP messages to Exchange 2007.

We trialed SMTP sends to both Exchange 2003 and 2007. The problem is 
isolated to 2007.  Any insights you can offer will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

Re: Exchange 2007 - outgoing messages tab symbol replaced with spaces.   

FWIW, we're having this problem too in SP1 Update Rollup 2, with both 
incoming and outgoing mail: a big problem, as some of our webforms generate 
tab-separated lines that are designed to be pasted into Excel (the paste 
totally breaks if they're spaces instead). Interestingly, for mail that is 
completely internal to the Exchange organization, this doesn't happen - must 
be an SMTP issue.

I opened a case with PSS about this, and learned that there is a hotfix 
available for UR1. The fix was neither included in nor forward-ported to 
UR2, so the only immediate solution is to roll back to UR1 and then request 
the fix from PSS.

This is also supposed to show up as part of UR3 for SP1 by mid-August, if 
you can wait until then.

If interested in the fix, ask PSS about KB 945870. It isn't public yet but 
they should be able to reference it by that number.
