I am running through DR scenarios on the test network. I rebuilt the exchange cluster after an interupted DR test. However the old server name was still in the AD. So I named the new server something else and finished the install.
I can now mail enable users in the AD, which goes through the mail setup and appears to finish with no error, but mailboxes do not appear in the store also you cannot (as expected open the mailbox) I don’t believe there is an issue with the store. When you try to open the mailbox it states that it cannot find the name the global address list I have replaced this and can confirm that the name does exist in here. The easy solution would be to start from scratch and rebuild the AD but I am trying to understand what has happened here. The term fubar while probably very close is not really constructive though.
