Long story short all the mailboxes were deleted. Exchange was corrupted and was not functioning. I had to remove exchange from the server/domain and rebuild it. When I removed exchange everyones account lost their exchange mailbox. Not to worry, I have backup PST's on their local systems. Now that exchange is back up all their accounts are not tied to exchange anymore and I can't figure out how to create a new mailbox under their account without rebuilding their account. How do I do this? If I can't and have to rebuild their account by deleting then adding it back under Act-Dir, will this change their profile on their local machine? You know how end users get when they have to setup a whole new profile. I'd rather not have them b!tch at me about it.

Thanks

Never mind, I found. Server Management console does not give you all the options. Under the Active Directory console it gives you the option to create the mailbox. I guess sometimes you just have to go back to the basics ;)

I knew i would post this qustion and find my answer 10 min later. Thanks anyway.
