Hi ,
We've investigated this a bit and we can confirm the problem exists, but we
can't detect any reason for the problem, the logs of the server/client protocol
show exactly what we would expect with nothing unusual about that group. It
would appear to be a bug in Windows Mail on Vista.
I don't see any easy/good solution, possibly renaming the group might be your
best bet, you could of course report the problem to microsoft it's always
possible they may fix it :-)
