Status Messages - the Good, the Bad, and The Ugly
The writing team will be putting some time into scrubbing status messages for SMSv4. Now, even if you haven't seen SMSv4 yet, we figure some of you out there might have some status messages you have encountered in SMS 2003 (or maybe even SMS 2.0) that you really dislike. Maybe you saw your status go from green to red, and when you tried to read the message that ruined your color scheme, you had no idea what it meant. Or maybe you got an error status message but the error had no solution. Can you find the status message ID for us, so we can take a look at it? We have a dump of all of the SMS 2003 status messages available here:

Take a cruise through the spreadsheet, or your site, and send us suggestions about which messages you would really like to see scrubbed. Send the status message ID to us, and tell us why you think it should be scrubbed, by February 21, 2007. You can reach us at smsdocs@microsoft.com. Thanks!
