Cannot connect to exchange mail boxes

[Adam_St_Laurent]

have Backup EXEC 10d and when i select to backup exchange mailboxes i get:
logon account failed to access microsoft exchange mailboxes. Access is denied.

Exchange is installed on the same server as backup exec.

This does it no matter what account i pick even administrator.

the backupexec service account must be associated with a Mail Account that has admin rights within Exchange.

See http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/249456.htm for sepcifics on preparing for Mailbox backups

Also see mail.tekscan.com/nomailboxes.htm for a discission of why you may not want to do brick level backups at all

Hello,
In addition to Ken's reply here, Please ensure that you rbackup exec logon account in use for this backup has:
- full exchange admin rights
- It has an active mailbox on the exchange server and that its name is unique in the exchange organisation.
- The account should be visible in GAL.
