XCLN: Err Msg: MAPI Was Unable to Load Emsmdb.dll
Applies To
This article was previously published under Q153076
SYMPTOMS
The following error message appears:

The set of folders could not be opened. An unexpected
error has occurred. MAPI was unable to load the
information service Emsmdb.dll. Be sure the service is
correctly installed and configured.
CAUSE
The error message references Emsmdb.dll, but the correct
DLL, Emsmdb32.dll, does reside in the <Winroot>\System
directory. The wrong file is being referenced because the
Wsock32.dll is not the right version; Wsock32.dll
therefore references Emsmdb.dll instead of Emsmdb32.dll.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem:
Replace Wsock32.dll with the Windows 95 version.
