Dear all:
I got a problem on my Ms Exchange Server 2k and one of the users was deleted in the Active Directory but I still found her account exist in the Exchange System Manager's store and in good condition. Please advise how can I delete her account again including e-mail from exchange server, tkx a lot

Right click the store and run the cleanup agent. The icon then changes. Right click the mailbox and choose purge.

I always exmerge the mailbox before deleting the user just in case. Also, purge the user same day as deletion otherwise Backup Exec will hiccup over the mailbox.
 
Zelandakh - Isn't this due to exchange not deleting items for a set period normally 30 days?

The default is 30 days, yes. After that the mailbox would disappear through exchange's normal purge process.
