SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to restrict a multi-valued property in Microsoft Exchange Message Store Provider, you may receive the following error message:

MAPI_E_TOO_COMPLEX (0x80040117)



CAUSE
Exchange Message Store Provider does not support property restriction on multi-valued properties.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



MORE INFORMATION
Multi-valued properties can be used in property restrictions if the service provider that is implementing the table supports them. If supported, multi-valued property tags can be used anywhere single-valued property tags can be used. For example, the Exchange Address Book Provider supports restrictions on multi-valued properties.
