Cause

This issue occurs after the Lync 2010 client sends a FindFolder request to EWS to find a Search Folder, such as the Missed Conversations folder. However, in the response from EWS, the GUID property values of the Search Folders do not match the GUID property values that the Lync 2010 client expects. Therefore, the Lync 2010 client continuously sends requests to create and find the folders.
