I have just upgraded from Exchange 2007 SP1 to SP2. All of a sudden, the mailbox permissions that were working perfectly before the update have stopped working. For example, my account is an Exchange Organization Administrator. I have checked all of the mailboxes on the server to make sure that my account is listed as having Full Access permissions on every mailbox. However, when I open Outlook 2007 on my workstation, with all the mailboxes that I have always been able to open in my Outlook profile, I can only open my own mailbox. The other mailboxes show an error message that the set of folders cannot be opened. This seems to be a progressive problem, in that yesterday I could still open one or two of the other mailboxes, and in some of the mailboxes, I only saw a couple of folders, instead of the complete folder list. However, today I can't open those mailboxes at all. I am not the only user that is being affected by this issue. Another user who is NOT an Exchange admin is also having problems opening mailboxes on which he always had full access permissions.
BTW, all of these mailboxes were originally migrated from an Exchange 2003 server, and as I said all of the permissions were working perfectly before I installed SP2 on my Exchange 2007 server.
I'm without a clue - it just doesn't make any sense to me at all. Has anyone experienced this issue and, hopefully, found a solution?

Do you mean for me to actually use the words "Trusted User" as the user name, or are you using that as a placeholder for my user account. I will give this a try, however, it doesn't answer my real question which is why my account shows as having full access permissions already to all mailboxes, and yet I can't open any of the other mailboxes.
