Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): 4.0

Last Modified: 19-FEB-2002
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you try to obtain details of a queued message in the Microsoft Exchange
Message Transfer Agent (MTA) property page, using the Microsoft Exchange
Administrator program, the Microsoft Exchange Directory service (DS) may crash
with a Dr. Watson error. If Microsoft Exchange and Windows NT symbols are
installed, the Dr. Watson dump will show the crash in Details.c.
CAUSE
=====
The call made to the DS to obtain the details of the message expects a certain
number of attributes to be returned. In some cases, these return values can be
pulled from bad memory. This causes the DS to crash.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 U.S.
Service Pack 2. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the
