OK, I have an issue which I'm hoping someone can point in the right direction...even if it's only to ask some questions I haven't thought of yet.
OK, first the setup: DC's and GC's running Win2k SP3. We are in a child domain. E2K SP3 running on Win2k SP2 member servers. There are 5 Admin groups though we're only concerned with one of them. The issue: Trying to move a mailbox fails. Basically the server has one storage group, and 4 stores. We're trying to move mailboxes from the original store (priv1) to one of the other 3 on the same server, and if fails with a mapi error indicating the IS/Exchange serevr is unavailable. The Event log shows 14 entries like this: Event Type: Warning Event Source: MSExchangeIS Mailbox Store Event Category: Access Control Event ID: 1029 Date: 25/03/2003 Time: 8:25:28 PM User: N/A Computer: <servername> Description: [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed an operation because the user did not have the following access rights: 'Delete' 'Read Property' 'Write Property' 'Create Message' 'View Item' 'Create Subfolder' 'Write Security Descriptor' 'Write Owner' 'Read Security Descriptor' 'Contact' The distinguished name of the owning mailbox is /O=<OrgName>/OU=<AdminGroup>/CN=CONFIGURATION/CN=SERVERS/CN=<Servername> /CN=MICROSOFT SYSTEM ATTENDANT.

Data: 0000: 01 00 00 00 00 00 03 52 .......R Then followed by Antigen noticing the Store's gone off-line. And then: Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeAdmin Event Category: Move Mailbox Event ID: 9169 Date: 25/03/2003 Time: 8:26:05 PM User: N/A Computer: servername Description: Failed to copy basic mailbox information.

Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeAdmin Event Category: Move Mailbox Event ID: 1008 Date: 25/03/2003 Time: 8:26:10 PM User: N/A Computer: servername Description: Unable to move mailbox 'User'.

Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeSA Event Category: MAPI Session Event ID: 9175 Date: 25/03/2003 Time: 8:26:10 PM User: N/A Computer: servername Description: The MAPI call 'OpenMsgStore' failed with the following error: The Microsoft Exchange Server computer is not available. Either there are network problems or the Microsoft Exchange Server computer is down for maintenance. The MAPI provider failed. Microsoft Exchange Server Information Store ID no: 8004011d-0526-00000000 For more information, click http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp. Now the odd thing is that this is the second server set up in this Admin group and is in the same AD site, subnet etc etc. The first one exhibits no problems. Moving a mailbox from the 1st server to the priv1 on the 2nd server works ok, but moving from the 1st server to any other store on the 2nd server fails. However, if you remove a mailbox, then create a new mailbox in the other stores, it works ok. It is thus only the move function which seems not to work. Whilst troubleshooting another issue over the weekend I stumbled across an article which mentioned the system attendant accounts. Unfortunately I can't remember how I got there to read it further but I think it said you could delete those accounts as they aren't needed, and I'm wondering if this has a bearing? Anyone experienced something similar?
