Botched Mailbox Move Left User in Limbo
I attempted to move a large mailbox from one store to another. During the Move the New Store Crashed (Ran out of Log Space) so now the mailbox can not receive mail.
We tried to Move From Corp1 to Corp2.
When I Look at the mailbox in Exchange Management tool it shows that it is in Corp1
When I look at it in ADSIEdit it shows it is in Corp1
But I am Getting this in the mailbox servers application Log:

Did you post the complete event log entry? I don't see a description.
The old "fix" for a botched mailbox move was to try to move it back. What would happen is that the move would fail, but it would clean up the partial mailbox. Exchange 2007 and 2010 is supposed to be smart enough to not require that, however.
Take a backup first! Have the user export his mailbox to a PST if he can get to the data or has offline folders just to be sure.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."

I will give that a Try. Want to be sure I have enough Log Space before I start that! I will let you know if that worked
