Exchange is a database. When you created the user all you did was mail enable the user, you did not create a mailbox object. That is created when it is required. That will either be when the user logs in to their mailbox with Outlook/OWA for the first time or when the user account receives a message.

Just as Simon said, all you need to do is, either connecting the users Outlook to the Exchange server, or else opening the OWA (Outlook Web access) http://serverip/exchange .. and once it prompts you the username and password. The mailbox is created and can be seen in Exchange system manager.

TORSAKTA - this is an old question. Unlike a forum it is not possible to "bump" questions back up the list. The only people who will see your post are those that have already participated. Instead you should post your question as a new question in the Exchange Server Zone which will allow other experts the chance to see the question and respond.

The mailbox is created when a user logs in the mailbox for the first time. Then you can see his mailbox in the Exchange system manager.
