I really hate the Mailbox Manager. Perhaps it's due to the fact that going back to Exchange 4.0, it never has really been foolproof. Another reason I hate it is that it's a tool administrators use to play nanny. I hate playing nanny.

One person said that restarting the mailbox manager service fixes it temporarily. I thought this too as this got it to work once for me, but I just tried it again (restarting the service) and still it will not process any mailboxes (although it has several times). I am running exchange 5.5sp4 on win2k sp4 and have the mailbox manager from the sp4 download. I see in the knowledge base that there is a newer mailbox manager (post-sp4) but they do not mention this problem and it is not available for download (you must call PSS and beg for it).

I am having a little trouble with mine, I have my manager set up on a test box. Currently it is set to audit only with these specifics: Inbox: 3 Days Sent Items: 3 Days Deleted Items: 3 Days Other Folders: 5 Days The mailboxes on this server were imported onto it using Exmerge last Thursday When the process runs, whether scheduled or after choosing clean now I get this: Event ID: 727 Started processing mailboxes at the scheduled time of 09/15/03 09:54:50. Event ID: 728 The Microsoft Exchange Server Mailbox Manager has completed processing mailboxes Started at: 09/15/03 09:54:50 Completed at: 09/15/03 09:54:50 Mailboxes processed: 0 Messages moved: 0 Size of moved messages: 0.00 KB Deleted messages: 0 Size of deleted messages: 0.00 KB. I know there are messages in these mailboxes older than 3 days Any ideas on if I'm missing something? Current config Windows 2000 SP4 Exchange Server 5.5 Sp4 TIA, Joshua Joshua Morgan Senior Network Administrator AIMCO _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
