Something missing from Exchange 2000 - Active Directory components

Hi Group,
I just installed Exchange 2000 Standard Server on one of my two Windows 2000 domain controllers. After the install, I go to Active Directory Users and Computers. Usually I can right-click on a user and go to "Exchange Tasks" and then I am give the option to create a mailbox, set and email address, and enable instant messaging for that user. Now I am only given the option to enable instant messaging. The mailbox option is gone. Why?? Did something not install correctly?

Also, going into the properties of a user does not give me the ability to change the users email addresses or anything.

I should mention this is my second install. I installed the Trial version already, but had to uninstall it since it was the Enterprise version, and I only needed the Standard server. The Trial version worked fine. The uninstall wouldn't work, so I had to manually remove everything from Active Directory and the computer. Now it seems corrupted when I try to reinstall.

Please tell me what I need to do to get the admin functions back.

Reagan
