The Microsoft Exchange Message Transfer Agent (MTA) terminates
unexpectedly with an event similar to the following (as viewed in the
Application Event Log):
Event Id: 9405
Source: MSExchangeMTA
Type: Error
Category: Field Engineering
Description:
An unexpected error has occurred which may cause the MTA
