SYMPTOMS
========

Conversion of the P1 Originator may cause a hard-coded breakpoint in WinDbg,
resulting in a potential heap corruption.

CAUSE

unconditionally marked as a reference in the descriptor->syntax field.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange 4.0
U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the
