CAUSE

This problem can occur because when the routing engine starts, the routing engine passes all the address space types that are configured to the information store. When an address type of MSA (defined for AppleTalk Connector) is passed with a blank address space, the information store runs erroneous code.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:

Component: information store

File name Version
Store.exe 6.0.4418.25


WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, change the address for address type MSA from blank to an asterisk (*).

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. This problem was first corrected in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Service Pack 1.
