AD account deleted but not the mailbox (Exchange 2k3) - how can I connect a user to it

Someone (long story) deleted a user account but not the exchange mailbox.  I have created a temp user account but don't know how to connect it to the mailbox.  Is this posisble and how?

Thanks!

Not applicable - in step 1 it references deleteing the mailbox from the user account in AD.  That user account was already deleted.

Just skip step 1, the article still seems valid for your question

Also this article describes how to recover a deleted AD account if that is something you want to do

nevermind - I figured it out.

I just had to run the cleanup agent first then the document worked fine.

Thanks!
