SPR# JDOG678MCA - Launching attachments which have double exclamation marks
(!!) in the filename causes a Notes client crash. The double exclamation mark
characters are not allowed in a filename. With this fix, when we encounter such
a situation, a valid filename will be created instead.

Refer to the Upgrade Central site for details on upgrading Notes/Domino.

A cumulative client hotfix (CCH) is available for Notes Client 6.5.4 that fixes
the issue reported in SPR# JDOG678MCA. Since hotfixes do not receive the
extensive testing that maintenance releases and fix packs do, customers are
encouraged to implement workarounds or deploy a release containing the fix.
However, if workarounds are not possible or applicable and you still need a
fix, contact IBM Technical Support to request the CCH containing the fix for
this issue.
