We did have some issues with users not having the inheritance set which prevents them from using their SmartPhones, but all of the users having the Rules or Delegates issues have inheritance set. The rules and delegates still exist, they just don't function correctly. And even more oddly, for one of the users, out of a list of 5 rules, only 2 stopped working...

I might suggest you see if a given user and/or mailbox has been blocked from permission inheritance. That's the only item that pops to mind that would cause that without major mumbo jumbo.

We have observed the same behavior with delegate permissions. Some delegates need to be removed and re-added before the permissions will become effective again. Has anyone else observed anything like this? Is there any way to force the Exchange 2010 server to re-evaluate the rules and delegates and 'reapply' them so they become effective without the user doing it? This is confusing for users because the rules and delegates still exist, but they do not know if they are ineffective until the rule fails to function or the delegated party calls to advise them they no longer have access.
