SYMPTOMS
The MAPI messages control causes a general protection (GP) fault when you try to download more than 923 messages from the inbox after setting the Action property to MSG_FETCH.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the internal 64K limit is exceeded when more than 923 messages are fetched into the message set.



WORKAROUND
The only way to avoid this problem is to limit the number of messages downloaded by using the FetchMsgType and FetchUnreadOnly properties to limit the message set to a particular set of messages.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Visual Basic version 2.0 for Windows. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Visual Basic version 3.0 for Windows.
