Exchange Aliases missing after mailbox move
Exchange 2003 Enterprise
Two mailstores on same server in two different storage groups
After moving two of the mailboxes in my environment the email aliases assigned to the accounts in AD no longer show up. YET they work. So if you look under my account, I don't see domainadmin@domain.com for example. But if I send a mail to that address I get it. Makes managing aliases VERY difficult seeing they exist but aren't listed...
Any thoughts?

After hours restart the exchange information store service.
I am curious to see how they do not exist. I would check attributes right inside ADSIEDIT for each of those users - and if its there, i wont bother AD much since i would be relieved to see those users working good.

Do you have specific attributes to look for?

homeMDB (this looks like the one i moved the mailbox to:
CN=Mailbox Store II (MX01),CN=Second Storage Group,CN=InformationStore,
homeMTA (looks like the Exchange server both mailstores reside on)
CN=Microsoft MTA,CN=MX01,CN=Servers,CN=
legacyExchangeDN
/o=CompanyName/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients/cn=myu
CN=Mailbox Store II (MX01),CN=Second Storage Group,CN=InformationStore,

and here's an example
I can send an email to "bugreport@mydomain.com" and receive it. But if I am looking at ADUC on the Exchange server I don't see that alias under my account. How is this possible? I can't look at Exchange attributes on the DC because Exchange management tools isn't installed on it and therefore Exchange tabs aren't available. Would it help if I installed them on there so the tabs show up?

the email address at hand was not an alias attached to the user account but rather the user account was a member of a distribution group with that name
