Can you create new blank database. create user and send some messages. NOw try to take NTBACKUP of that new database.

if this works then the problem is the Database.

Hello,

Also run EXBPA and give me the output of EXBPA. we need to check the application and system log also.

Can you tell me how much is the disk space left on the drives on server?

Hi jawad1481, and thanks for the reply's.

The amount of disk space on the MDBDATA drive is: 388GB
on C: drive is 8GB out of 40GB.

As for the EXBPA, strangely as it may sounds, it's connecting to the AD and start the scan, but in the results  is claims that "Exchnage server cannot be contacted"..

Any ideas?
Needless to say that the Exch is fully operational, sending and receiving.
