Fantastic! you were right on. I didn't even think of looking at that

not mounted automatically after reboot. This is safety feature so Service
Packs can be applied with /disasterrecovery switch as well. After databases
are restored from backup system make sure 'Do not mount this store at
startup' box is unticked at ESM-Mailbox store- Database tab. If this is not
the case is there any error message pertaining to database mount in app log?
