Mailbox Store Dismounts Automatically
I have been having some problems with our Exchange 2003 box, users keep losing connectivity with the exchange server.
The exchange server does not lose network connectivity, I can RDP to it no problem.
The resolution is to restart the information store service.
But I am seeing a lot of errors in Event viewer as follows.

Do you see any events about log replay?
When was the last successful backup on the server?
If your checkpoint is too deep, the store can dismount. You need to restart the server and ensure a successful backup of exchange completes and truncates transaction logs.
The article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998379(EXCHG.65).aspxdiscusses backing up of Exchange Server 2003 Databases.
You can also run Exchange Troubleshooting Assistant. It can be downloaded from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=55884.
The Microsoft Exchange Troubleshooting Assistant can help to determine the cause of performance, mail flow and database mounting issues on computers running Microsoft Exchange Server. The tool automates specialized troubleshooting steps for identified symptoms.
