Error reconnecting user mailbox

On a disconnected mailbox - I get the following error:

Summary: 1 item(s). 0 succeeded, 1 failed.
Elapsed time: 00:00:06


Stafford, Troy
Failed

Error:
The LegacyExchangeDN "/O=AUBURNSD/OU=FIRST ADMINISTRATIVE GROUP/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=TSTAFFORD" of "3c0a6c23-b053-454a-8219-006fa8c9fec8" is being used by the following user in Active Directory: "Stafford, Troy". The value for LegacyExchangeDN must be unique to each user.

Exchange Management Shell command attempted:
Connect-Mailbox -Identity '3c0a6c23-b053-454a-8219-006fa8c9fec8' -Database 'admex1svr.asd.auburn.wednet.edu\MBX Storage Group 01\MBX01' -User 'asd\z10' -Alias 'z10'

Elapsed Time: 00:00:06

How do I fix this?  I tried reconnecting it to a generic user without the same name just to get it "active" again but it still fails.  How can I fix it or assign a different LegacyExchangeDN?

Does the original mailbox owner (Stafford, Troy) still exist in AD?

No user doesn't exist.  Tried re-creating it and reconnecting but it gives this error, I don't know why.

I see the tool, but it seems to change things across the whole Exchange site, I don't want to do that, just this one mailbox.  Will this tool do that?

Thanks for this, this is Exchange 2007 and the script doesn't appear to run.

I appreciate your time.
Implementing the script doesn't work for me.  The LegacyDN application doesn't reference Exchange 2007 - didn't find a solution on this one really.
