- Microsoft Mail Post Office Diagnostics Utility, version 3.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

The Microsoft Mail Postoffice Diagnostics Utility (PODIAG.EXE) Address &
Group Check may return an Error 140 if it detects a badly corrupted NETPO.GLB
file that cannot be repaired.

One condition that will result in the Error 140 is when the NETPO.GLB file size
does not divide into an integer after performing the following calculation:

  [(NETPO.GLB file size) - 4]/43

PODIAG.EXE will create a new 4-byte NETPO.GLB file with a 4-byte header. All
external postoffice addresses and PROFS or SNADS gateway addresses that were
added to the postoffice address list or personal address lists will be invalid
after the NETPO.GLB file has been reset. These invalid addresses will be
detected by the Address & Group Check and will be deleted. The following is
the error message PODIAG.EXE displays when a badly corrupted NETPO.GLB is
detected:

  Error 140 Detected a problem with file (NETPO.GLB). All information will be
  removed from this file. After this fix, run the Address and Group tool with
  the maximum depth and all detail options selected. You must also add the
  external and gateway postoffice addresses manually. Do you want all
  information removed from this file?

MORE INFORMATION
================

The following is an excerpt from a PODIAG.LOG file that displays the detection
and correction of a badly corrupted NETPO.GLB. If the depth of check is not set
to the maximum allowable, the administrator must run PODIAG.EXE again in order
to detect the invalid addresses caused by the resetting of the NETPO.GLB.

  Error 140 Detected a problem with file (NETPO.GLB). All information will be

  information removed from this file?
