The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Active Server Components, version 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SYMPTOMS
========

If no manager is set for a particular recipient, when a messaging developer
tries to obtain a recipient's manager, the following error occurs:

  MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND

An empty value should be returned.

The problem occurs when a messaging developer runs the Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0
Active Messaging Autotest Script on Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 build 1558 (as
declared in Help About).

RESOLUTION
==========

With the release of Service Pack 1, Microsoft will check for MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND
and shadow it to return success. Because the return value for the object is
initialized to NULL at the outset, the result returned will be empty.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 5.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange Server
5.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on
