I think that is office installs a truncated mapi32.dll into winroot/system32 folder and renames the original to mapi32x.dll. The original mapi32.dll I believe is 621K and the one that is installed is 128K. It would be simple to verify and do a swap and see if it corrects the issue.
I can't drag up the appropriate Q# but I remember reading something about it. I found it originally during Exmerge issues and the article referenced an office install replacing the file. Hope that helps.
