OK, the weekend is here, so time for some experimenting...
On this particular network they have a Microsoft Business Dynamics Navision
server.
It is utilizing an e-mail archiving function which uses a MAPI connection
from the Navision server into Exchange using the Administrator account.
Exchange has Mail Archiving turned on and deposits copies of all mail into a
public folder.
Navision employs a 'dispatcher' service which processes the mail deposited
into this public folder moves the messages to another designated public
folder and creates a link to the Navision CRM database.
So far we have four public folder archives providing repositories for the
linked messages.
The messages are all in the Inbox folder of each of these public folders.
All of the public folders have many ten of thousands of messages within the
Inbox, except for the current one which is building up nicely.
..............if I turn the Navision 'dispatcher' service 'Off', basically
allowing the messages to build up in the Mail Archiving target folder..
....then error 9646 does not occur !
So it is linked to this it seems.
I guess it's mentioning the Administrator account as this is the account
used for the MAPI connection.
Question ? why is this occurring as the error mentions objtFolder when
there aren't an excess of folders ..just lots of messages in an Inbox in a
public folder...unless it's referring to the public folder as the objtFolder
as such ?
It never used to do this and has only started very recently.
I'll leave the dispatcher turned off for now to make sure this is causing
the issue and then re-enable it later to clear down the backlog.
Anyone shine any light on this ?
Is this something to speak to the Dynamics Navision people about ? or is
this something to do with Exchange ?
