Event Source: MSExchangeSA
Event Category: MAPI Session
Event ID: 9175
Date: 04/07/2008
Time: 12:05:24
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER
Description:
The MAPI call 'OpenMsgStore' failed with the following error:
The attempt to log on to the Microsoft Exchange Server computer has failed.
The MAPI provider failed.
Microsoft Exchange Server Information Store
ID no: 8004011d-0512-00000000
