Is there any events Log warnings. I ran into an issue with one user whose mailbox wasn't created on the server and I had to create it on another server and move it to the main one. There were events saying something to the effect of "couldn't create mailbox" when an attempt to access or send messages to the account.

When you check the box to create a new mailbox, it shows as successful in the task summary? When you rightclick on one of these users, in the Exchange Task wizard, are the options there that exist when a mailbox is present (ie move mailbox, delete mailbox)? -----Original Message----- From: Friese, Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 1:33 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created The RUS points to the one and only DC that we have. Nothing has been changed that I can see. -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 4:05 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created Have you changed the DC at all? Does the RUS point to the correct DC? -----Original Message----- From: Friese, Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 12:40 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created I've tried create as many as 10 different users...all with the same outcome.... -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 3:39 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created Well that is not a good thing. Have other new users been successful in this time? -----Original Message----- From: Friese, Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 12:18 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created just to rule out any misconception. I create this account at 8:30 this morning and I have given ample time for my environment size to allow for replication. It is now 3:25pm est and the mailbox still does not show. -----Original Message----- From: Friese, Casey Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 3:15 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created I've been down that route already William....I did a rebuild as well -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 3:21 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created Let's try forcing the RUS. In Exchange System Manager, navigate to Recipients | Recipient Update Service In the right pane, right click and update now. -----Original Message----- From: Friese, Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 12:05 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created never before have I had to wait. only one server that Im dealing with here and, infact, I created the mailbox from the ad users and computers on the exchange server. Also, can't send messages to the susposed new mailbox...the mailbox doesn't show in the gal...I can't resolve the name when I click check name for outlook either...add to this, I can't open the mailbox through OWA. -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 3:08 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: malbox not created Patience is the order of the day for the Exchange2000 admin. 1) The mailbox is not actually visibly created until either activity in the mailbox is initiated (like an inbound email) or the user logs into email 2) AD replication and Exchange Recipient Update Service. You have to wait for this information to be processed. You can force both of those services as well if you want to expedite the process.

I am running Exchange 2000 SP2 in an all Windows 2000 Domain. This is a one server, one site setup. Exchange and DC are on different machines but on the same network segment and in the same room. When I create a new account in active directory users and computers and check the box to create an exchange mailbox the process is carried out seemingly. When I refresh the screen and look at the properties of the newly created account there are no e-mail address (either smtp or x400) listed in the E-Mail addresses tab. When I try to connect to the mailbox through outlook I cant resolve the name.... Thank you, Casey Friese [EMAIL PROTECTED] Penn Color Inc.
