If I create a user account and delegate the account operator and exchange recipient administrator permissions to it I cannot create a new mail contact in Exchange 2007. The documentation says you are supposed to but I am getting this error:Summary: 1 item(s). 0 succeeded, 1 failed. Elapsed time: 00:00:01FIRSTNAME LASTNAMEFailedError:Access to the address list service on all Exchange 2007 servers has been denied.Exchange Management Shell command attempted:New-MailContact -ExternalEmailAddress 'SMTP:email@domain.com' -Name 'Webmaster' -Alias 'Webmaster' -OrganizationalUnit 'domain.com/Users' -FirstName 'FIRSTNAME' -Initials '' -LastName 'LASTNAME'Elapsed Time: 00:00:01Anyone else experiencing this error. I firmly believe this might be a bug. FYI, this server was rebuilt using setup /m:recoverserver although I doubt that has anything to do with it.

i havethe sameerror trying to create a new distribution list: - Error:Access to the address list service on all Exchange 2007 servers has been denied. Did you ever figure it out?

YOu have no issues as a domain admin/full exchange admin though? Could some of your AD permissions be non-default?

I am having this problem with creating a distribution group.The account is a an Exchange Administrator, Exchange Recipient Administrator.The machine is part of the Exchange Servers group.I also get an access denied error when I try to use the queue viewer.Can anyone help?

Are you an admin of the machine itself? You should create a new post, as your comments have nothing to do with the origional poster.
