Before you continue, may I recommend against this practice? Or at least be aware that mailboxes are not readily moved from container to container and address book views would be a more favorable deployment methodology for most installations. But not all...
Yes, it sounds like a container permissions issue. Does the container have the same permissions as the recipients container as viewed in Exchange Admin?

Carter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 3:35 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Mailboxes in non default recipients container Hi, I have a situation where I want to have a mailbox in the non default recipients container. I have created a recipients containter called Functional Mailboxes. I have created the mailbox within this container and now when I try to access the mailbox I get the following. Unable to open your default e-mail folders. The attempt to logon to the microsoft exchange server computer has failed. I created another mailbox in the default recipients container and used the same NT account and I was ok. When using the non default recipients container do you need to add any specific permissions? The Exchange Service Account does have full access as do the Network Admin accounts.
