Disaster Recovery - restored but 1 mailbox isn't working!



Hi all,

Our internal SBS2K3 Premium box's psu went down last night - bah! Also 'did
something bad' to something else [possibly plural] on the mb. So... swapped
mb, memory, processor and psu. Had backup on separate drive. Clean install
of W2K3 - installed W2K3 SP1 - restored from backup. Usual fun with NICs etc
but once we'd got shot of the ghosted previous ones, booted up without an
error. All services tickity boo. Everything seems fine apart from... 1
mailbox [which would be mine!] which isn't
quite right.

Outlook 2003 on my XP SP2 laptop opens fine and says its connected to the
Server fine. Outgoing mail appears to be sending fine [testing to an account
on our sister company and getting there no probs]. Replied from sister
company account and it reaches our SBS box. But... it stays sitting in the
Queue on the Server and doesn't reach my mailbox [checked with both Outlook
2003 and OWA].

Have also tried just sending a mail [using OWA] from our SBS Box [Admin
account] to my user account - didn't get here. Its sitting in the queue. Its
almost like my mailbox is no longer recognised by the server as actually
being there. There is nothing obvious in the Exchange System Manager and in
a kind of cruel [for me] way I'm glad its me rather than one of my users.
That said, I need this resolved ASAP obviously. Any ideas where I can check?

Thanks,



David
