SYMPTOMS
========
The application log contains several warning events from MSExchangeMTA Field
Engineering beginning with a 2219 event, followed by several 2206 events, and
ending with a 2207 event.
CAUSE
=====
These events simply indicate that the message transfer agent (MTA) is running an
automatic MTACHECK because it determined that the MTA was not shut down cleanly
the last time it stopped. The MTA automatically logs the results to the
Exchsrvr\Mtadata\Mtacheck.Out\Mtacheck.log file.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The automatic MTACHECK delays MTA startup. The events are as follows:
