Special Requirement for Windows Server 2003 x64 Machines

When running an Event Import job on a Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition machine, the host machine must be using the Exchange Server 2007 "Messaging API and Collaboration Data Objects 1.2.1" (MAPI client and CDO). If the host machine is using the Outlook 2003 MAPI client, the import job will fail to run.

Note: This problem does not affect Exchange import jobs running on 32-bit Windows Server 2003 machines. However, even on these machines we recommend that the host machine uses the Exchange Server 2007 "MAPI client and CDO" (unless you are importing Unicode .pst files, in which case it is acceptable to use the Outlook 2003 MAPI client).
