This article was previously published under Q285859





SYMPTOMS
When you click the Policies tab in Mailbox Manager properties, Admin.exe may stop responding (hang), and CPU use for Admin.exe may be close to 100 percent.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because of a flaw in the logic of Mailbox Manager, which builds the container tree that is displayed in the dialog box. This problem occurs in directories that contain many levels of subcontainers.



RESOLUTION
A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Apply it only to computers that are experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 service pack that contains this hotfix.

To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the fix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

NOTE: In special cases, charges that are ordinarily incurred for support calls may be canceled if a Microsoft Support Professional determines that a specific update will resolve your problem. The typical support costs will apply to additional support questions and issues that do not qualify for the specific update in question.

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:

Component: Mbclean

NOTE: Because of file dependencies, Exchange Server version 5.5 Service Pack 4 must be applied before you apply this fix.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5.
