Hi Paul,

Thanks very much for the advice. I did what you suggested and the problem is
now fixed. The files involved were mbdperf.dll, mtaperf.dll, perfdsa.dll and
msesperf.dll. That's a great relief. There's nothing like disappearing
e-mail to invoke the wrath of the users. Thanks again Paul.

Regards
Tony

Hi Tony,

Yeah, the sp upgrade is crucial to every file.  I cannot vouch for your
particular problem but with most probs after an sp this is the most usual
issue.  I had a major crash last night which got me onto a 23 hour day and
two hours of it could have been saved if the admin had actually ran sp4
successfully BEFORE calling me out (still fresh in my mind)!

Let me know how you get on.

Regards

Paul.

Thanks Paul,

I think there was at lease one file skipped when I installed SP4. I will
follow your advice and attempt a reinstall shortly.

Tony

Did you skip any files that the SP update said were in use?  You MUST
upgrade every last bit.

I would suggest re-running SP4, ensure that perfmon isn't running and
ensuring that every file is updated.  If it stops on a file that cannot be
updated then bosh out of the upgrade, rename the existing file and start
again.

Good luck

Hi Everyone,

I installed Service Pack 4 on my Exchange 5.5 server last Friday and since
then all mail users have had a weird problem with disappearing mail in their
Outlook folders. At first the mail completely disappears when the user tries
to sort it by "Subject". It then returns when sorted by "From" or
"Received". In a few cases mail cannot be displayed in the "Sent Items"
folder at all. 
At first I thought it was just user error but the whole site has this
problem to one degree or another. Any ideas??

Regards
Tony
