Restart the Microsoft System Attendant service (which will basically cause all of Exchange to restart). You don't say whether your environment is Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003. If you are Exchange 2003, I would probably spend some time with the Exchange_Mailbox WMI class to figure out who/where Exchange thinks the mailbox is... -----Original Message----- From: Amy Kohler [mailto:akohler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, July 14, 2005 9:26 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] mailbox will not re-connect http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hello all, For some reason the Administrator account was disconnected from it's mailbox. When I try to reconnect it, it says it has been reconnected to an existing user and wait for predication to complete. I left it for the weekend and it still has the problem. Friday I ran the cleanup agent. Forced replication on the domain. Updated the RUS, to no avail. Any ideas?
