You probably have this already, but did you give the BES service account the "Administer Information Store" permission on the Exch servers?

E2K on W2K with a side of BES4.0. All hanging by a thread. DC started crashing yesterday (PIII white box). I was hoping for the weekend to do updates but my hand was forced. All 2K servers had over 50 updates. After updating Exch to sp3 w hotfixes and and updating the SM on the BES box, BES wouldn't talk to Exch. When I tried to open the BES Mgr the error was can't connect to the DB. Rather deceiving error. It's a mapi error. Following some of the RIM KB's and reading on the forums I was able to get the BES mgr started but there's still no mail flow from Exchange. I've granted the BB mailbox account every perm in the world. I'm on the list at RIM for help, min 24 hour wait. T-Mobile is no help. I've read, after the fact that SP2 breaks the BES so I had to do it good. Any words of wisdom for a guy that hasn't touched a BB in about 5 years???? I feel like I've just been RIMed...... Andy steps in.... Don? You've got BB's don't you? I've got over 100 sales guy's starting to shake from withdrawals.
