SUMMARY
The application event log contains several warning events from MSExchangeMTA Field Engineering beginning with a 2219 event, followed by several 2206 events, and eventually ending with a 2207 event.



MORE INFORMATION
These events simply indicate that the message transfer agent (MTA) is running an automatic MTACHECK because the MTA determined that it did not shut down cleanly the last time it stopped. The MTA will automatically log the results to the \Exchsrvr\Mtadata\Mtacheck.out\Mtacheck.log file.

The automatic MTACHECK will delay MTA startup.
