Cause

This occurs when emails have a large Recipient and/or Attachment list.

Resolution

As part of the EV best practices, the following two registry keys should be in place on all EV servers:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\##.#\Outlook\Options\Mail

Dword: RecipientMax

Value:  (hex) ffffffff

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\##.#\Outlook\Options\Mail

Dword: AttachmentMax

Value:  (hex) ffffffff

Note: ##.# placeholder is 15.0 for Office 2013 and 16.0 for Office 2016 and later.

Run the EVSVR Dumpsaveset operation to verify the items are now retrievable.
