Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): WinNT:5.0,5.5

Keyword(s): exc55sp2fix
Last Modified: 20-MAY-2002
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 5.0, 5.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When a message that contains rich text is received from the Internet via the
Internet Mail Service, two symptoms can occur:
- The Microsoft Exchange information store may use 100 percent of the processor
time and not deliver the message.
- The message body may be lost.
CAUSE
=====
When the message is received, the rich text part of the message may be corrupt.
If the rich text is corrupt, and the information store tries to sync the rich
text to the message body, the information store may fail and fall into an
infinite loop, or it may lose the data that it was syncing and not retry the
operation. If the information store gets into an infinite loop, no more messages
are delivered. The store must be restarted, and the failing archive removed from
the Exchsrvr\Imcdata\In directory.
