Hi Paul
If fall else fails try the following. Delete the users concerned. Since you
cannot access their mailboxes anyway you have nothing to lose from what I
understand? Then after about 10 minutes run the cleanup agent for all the
mailboxes. At this point the users mailbox should show up with a red cross
against it. At that point recreate the users network account without a
mailbox. At that point you should then be able to reconnect the mailbox to
the newly created account and access it. Obviously you must have deleted
mailbox retention enabled for this to work.
A couple of quick questions. Firstly when creating new users does your
Recipient Update service work correctly. Are there any errors relating to
these mailbox in the event logs. I suspect from what you describe there may
well be.
For the future, I appreciate this does not help now, always make a point of
going to the Exchange Advanced tab for the user and under mailbox rights
make sure the self object has the associated external account entry set to
allow ticked. This has always prevented this for me as I have seen this a
few times when it isn't ticked
Finally have a look at the link below. This is related as once the
connection between the mailbox and its AD account are lost all mails
delievred to it will be rejected.

Hope that helps?

Subject: [exchangelist] Still having problems with re-enabling users
http://www.MSExchange.org/
Last week I had problems with re-enabling disabled users as it was
taking up to two hours before they could access the Exchange server
again. I understand from responses that it could take that long before
all the changes made their way through AD. Today however, I have been
waiting for almost 7 hours and the user still cannot log into the
Exchange server. Ideas?
