I suggest you create a mailbox via the MMC, and then do the same via your application. You can then inspect the auth.tab file and see what differences exist.

Also, you should not need to set the host property on the objects
(eg: mailBoxCreate.Host). They should be set to blank. They are for remote administration.

Did you notice any difference in the AUTH.TAB files when you did this...:

I suggest you create a mailbox via the MMC, and then do the same via your application. You can then inspect the auth.tab file and see what differences exist.

The lines of the two logins you attempted to add (the MMC one and yours) should appear consecutively at the bottom of the file.

Anyone figure this out. I have the same issue. It didn;t used to do this. Now when I add a user via web app it wont authenticate.
