Check to see if the public folder actually has a replica on the server. Maybe it somehow got orphaned.
Another possibility is that the PF's e-mail address may have a duplicate somewhere. Also - do you have multiple Exchange servers? If so, do they all have public folders? Is the PF hierarchy 100% consistent among them? Also just to be safe you could make file copies of these messages. I believe you will see their files if you go to the \Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi 1\Queue directory. Just copy them somewhere safe. Now that you have a backup copy of the messages, you can try to Stop the SMTP service, Mail-disable the public folder, wait a few minutes, Mail-enable the public folder, start SMTP service, see if it helps.

Is there anything sitting in the "Unreachable destination" queue?

We have some Public Folders that are mail enabled. For some reason external people are unable to send mail to it. We have given Default and Anonymous Contributor rights but still nothing. Can someone point me in the right direction.
