SYMPTOMS
When you are receiving mail through the Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service, there may be a Dr. Watson error in the Information Store. The call stack may look like the following:

  FramePtr  RetAddr   Param1   Param2   Param3   Function Name 0d55f3d0 00557a0c  00007fff 00000001 0e8701c8 STORE!EcFormatMVString8+0x33 0d55f3f8 00559a92  00007fff 0e8701c0 0d55f424 STORE!EcFormatValue+0x1fc 0d55f428 005597e4  00007fff 0000000d 00000028 STORE!EcFormatRow+0x132 0d55f4dc 004f3398  0dce3606 00000001 00000fad STORE!EcFormatRecipientRow+0xb24 0d55f540 005d828c  00000001 00000001 0000000d STORE!ORECIP::EcModifyRow+0x2d8 0d55f5dc 0060913e  00000fad 00000000 01379820 STORE!CVTRECIP::HrSetAdrlist+0x43c 0d55f614 006194a9  0dcf8b18 00000000 0e874230 STORE!CMAPIMessage::ModifyRecipients+0x1be 0d55f658 0061a193  000008a8 0d55f690 00000000 STORE!HrDecodeRecipTable+0x199 0d55f6bc 0060eb13  ffffffff 00000000 00405cf8 STORE!HrExtractProperties+0x473 0d55f6e0 005fc5d1  0dcf8b50 00000002 00405cf8 STORE!TNEF_ExtractProps+0x113 0d55f718 0060720c  0dcdf5d0 0dce91f0 00000000 STORE!CmnBptMessage::hrExtractTNEF+0x121 0d55f73c 005f0567  0dcdf5d0 00000000 0dce0195 STORE!CmcvtrBptEnd::hrExtract+0x1cc 0d55f76c 0060cb26  0dce0d24 000026c1 0d55f794 STORE!CINETextr::hrExtract+0xe7 0dcd5190 01363d10  00000001 00673398 0dcd5150 STORE!CConvertStream::Write+0xd6

NOTE: The lines in this sample call stack have been wrapped for formatting purposes.



CAUSE
The Information Store does not handle the setting of multi-valued properties on the recipient table correctly. In ORECIP::EcModifyRow, when it converts the p-tags back to MAPI-style p-tags, the code does not check whether any of the text properties are multi-valued.
