Hi
I have the very same problem but the Log on as a/c is "Local System" which I have not changed.
I simply added a user and it failed to create a mailbox. Then this error occurred when I tried to access the Mailbox tab of the Exchange Console.
NB I am running a SBS 2003 domain with a W2K8 Exchange Server 2007 machine.
Kind Regards
David

The "solution" does not solve my issue.
When I open Exchange Management Console it cannot longer connect to Activer Directory showing the related error, however I can connect with well know credentials using the Best Practices Analyzer.
I have no other errors in the database and yesterday everything was fine. I did not change any account credentials.
Any other solution?
I am sure there is a way to change the "deafult" account credentials that Exchange Management Console uses to connect to AD, but I cannot find where.
Please advice!

I have this issue as well. Going to try a reboot.
