Longshot here, but Symantec's AV Products for Exchange have an option to not
allow store access until rescan on updated virus definitions.  Other AV
vendors may have the same.  If for some reason the AV product can't scan an
item (ex would be the AV service is stopped) then it doesn't let the users
open any e-mails if there has been a new virus update since the last time
that e-mail was opened.

So I'd check for this type of option.  If it's enabled, and you stop the AV
service trying to get around it, it's still prevents the access, at
least with Symantec.

Hi list,

Long time no mail to this list due to too busy times at home......still
reading the list though...

I ran into a problem the other day, someone at a customer site did something
to their exchange 2000 server which resulted in some users not being able to
send or read their email. They get "can't open item"messages and mail stays
in the outbox.

Not all users are affected though.

I tried to export the mailboxes prior to going to kick the mail server but
this resulted in only errors even though admin has full mailbox access......
Even ISINTEG seems to dislike the server these days.....it shutsdown without
even trying...

I think that they did something with spyware removal tools or online virus
scan tools on the server but they are not sure....no traces to be found from
either one on the server......

Any ideas are welcome, for I have really no clue whatsoever
anymore........tonight is last debugging eveing for me, after that last exit
is reinstallation of Exchange....

Hope any one can shed a light on this.....

Thanks in advance

Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards
