<div>
I have used the Exchange Troubleshooting Assistant and it suggests that there is no problem.<br />
I have a freaking ghost messing with my head.
</div>


<div>
Another point of concern is that the folders that contain the logs are emtpy...<br />
<br />
Moving into a mild panic now.
</div>


<div>
Have you check that all exchange services are running and iis is running on exchange server?<br />
<br />

<div>
I have checked that and they are running.<br />
<br />
I have created a new database and moved all mailboxes to the new DB, but the problem remains.<br />
<br />
I am running ESEUTIL /P on the original DB now.<br />
<br />
Out of interest, once all mailboxes have been moved can I simply just dismount the old DB and remove it?
</div>


<div>
I was up till 3am, then woke up at 7am to carry on scratching, after a lot of curing I think I may have stumbled on the problem. The MS Exchange Troubleshooter indicated that SMTP was running but is not functioning, I checked the SMTP agents and I suspect that my Avira Anti Spam might be the problem, I have removed it now and rebooted the server, just waiting on the server to come back up. Will keep posted.
</div>


<div>
Ok so Avira Anti Spam was cause this whole pain, one good thing that came from this is that my Exchange is running on a new DB and the old one has been cleaned of any corruption and been defraged so not an entire waste of time.
