SYMPTOMS
Containers from multiple sites are displayed in the Policies tab of the Mailbox Manager program if the sites have names with identical first characters. For example, if you have sites that are named Redmond and Redmond1 and you install the Mailbox Manager program in the Redmond site, containers from both sites are displayed in the Policies tab.
CAUSE
To display all of the containers in the Exchange Server Administrator program, the Distinguished Names (DN) of all the containers are compared to the current site DN name so that only the containers that belong to that site are displayed. There is a issue in performing the comparison.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS
