Temporary mailbox

[Guest]

I am attempting to set up a mailbox using Outlook 2007 on Windows XP, using
Exchange 2003. I am getting a message ... "Your mailbox has been moved on
Microsoft Exchange Server. A temporary mailbox exists but it might not have
all your data."

If only gives me three options ... 1) use temporary mailbox 2) use old data
3) cancel. However, none of these choices fixes the problem. So how do I
fix?

Have you spoken to the Exchange admin?

I am the Exchange Admin.

I didn't say in my previous message, however, I have attempted to delete the
*.ost file and that didn't work. I've looked at Exchange and I can't figure
out where a temp mailbox would be.

Can you access it normally by OWA, did you try creating a new
profile?

OWA works for this user and I did try to delete the profile on the user's
computer and created a new one with the same results.

I am having the same issue but it seems that when "I get the attention" of
the Exchange server and asks for my userid and password, even after asking if
I want to use the tempory mailbox. Have you found a solution. I noticed that
my desk top has a icon for a temporary mailbox.
