sbs2k not adding mailboxes

I have a client with eleven users and any extra users I
add i get an error when applying their name in outlook
properties to attach to the exchange server. the error
is "unable to find name in list, " I have 15 user
licencences" I am really tearing my hair out as I have
made 5 or 6 attempts to add different users, it creates
logon and allowa right to shared drives and access to
Internet but not exchage for both internal and external
mail. The PC's are xp pro.

please, please any suggestions appreciated!!!

Are you adding users from the To Do list?

No theories but maybe run the internet connection wizard again for

Jim,
I have done everything including "icw" my situation is the
same as tom O Chiantis.
any other suggestions.
I am amazed at all the heavy guns not having come across
this before, I Havent gotten on to Microsoft support
because the answer will be re install exchage again!!
