SYMPTOMS

The following event IDs appear in the Application Event log:

Event ID 2380 MSExchangeMSMI

A memory access violation has occurred that prevents further processing of a message. The access violation that occurred is an attempt to read from 0. Please refer to the immediately following event(s) logged by MS Mail Connector Interchange for more information on the message that could not be processed.

Event ID 2446/2447 MSExchangeMSMI

MS Mail Connector Interchange has failed processing message from Exchange. The message is left in the delivery queue. Use the MS Exchange Administrator to view the details for this message or remove it from the queue. This message entitled "<message subject>" is from <message sender>. This error message will be logged again the next time MS Connector is restarted if the message is not removed from the queue.

The message stays queued in the message transfer agent (MTA) and cannot be deleted. Trying to delete one of these messages results in the following error message:

The object is not valid. Microsoft Exchange Administrator ID no: c1035b3c.

The event IDs 2380 and 2446/2447 are logged for each message queued in the MTA, each time the MSExchangeMSMI service is restarted.

A zero length ATT file is created and orphaned in the Maildata\Att directory of the Microsoft Mail Connector.

CAUSE

These symptoms occur when you receive a message by means of the Internet Mail Connector that contains a REPLY-TO address that cannot be understood by the Microsoft Mail Connector.
