SYMPTOMS
========

After you upgrade from Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1) to
Exchange Server SP2 on a Windows NT 3.51 computer, the Microsoft Exchange
information store may crash when the Internet Mail Service receives a MIME
message that does not contain an associated media type. The Dr. Watson log file
(Drwtsn32.log) may contain the following:

CAUSE
=====

This problem only occurs on a Windows NT Server 3.51 computer. The problem is
not observed on a computer running Windows NT Server 4.0. The crash is caused by
trying to compare a null media type with another string.


STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
Service Pack 2. A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully
regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this
specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem,
Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this
fix. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for more information.

This fix has been posted to the following Internet location:

  ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/exchange/exchange-public/fixes/Eng/Exchg5.0/Post-SP2-STORE/


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

This problem was fixed by making sure the media type is not null before the
comparison.
