asked on Delete Exchange Room Mailbox when the user is missing
I recently deleted an exchange user by mistake. This user was the user for an Exchange 2010 Room Mailbox. Now I cannot delete, edit or in anyway manipulate the room box. I would settle for deleting the Room box and starting over or any alternative but I want that room box out of the Rooms list in outlook.
Just about any solution would be fine as long as the Room box is not visible in the Rooms list in Outlook.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply, the mailbox is still there it just cant be edited since the user it was attached to is gone.
should be able to just re-create the user account with matching display name etc. and then from the Exchange mgmt console go to Recipient Configuration > Disconnected Mailbox, locate your resource mailbox and re-connect it to the user account you just created.

Thank you,
That was my first thought as well but there is nothing in the Disconnected Mailbox window.
I tried recreating a user with the exact same name hoping it would 'see' the user that is says is missing but they didnt connect. With nothing in the disconnected mail box window I am stumped.

After database maintenance ran last night the box showed up as disconnected. I created a user that matched the missing box, connected it and it worked like a champ. Thanks for the assist.

also, if it is deleted then surely it should auto-disappear from outlook list
