We are running Exchange 2007 Standard Occasionally when navigating through the Exchange Management Console the following error pops up. The window title is "get-receiveconnector" and it says 'ERROR: The exchange group with GUID "3f965b9c-f167-4b4a-936c-b8efb19c4784" was not found. This group gets created during setup, but it has been deleted.' what i do now pls tell me any one except exchange reinstall.

Did someone deleted Exchange Legacy InterOp group in Microsoft Exchange Security Groups Container? If yes, please check following steps and FINALLY run Setup /PrepareAD Steps are: 1. Open ADSIEDIT.msc 2. Right click properties on CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=<Domain>,DC=<> 3. In ATTRIBUTES list, drill down to and check attribute with name as otherWellKnownObjects and notice if there is any 0ADEL and the deleted objects container. 4. Finally run SETUP /PREPAREAD switch. It is automatically created if any requried groups are missing. NOTE: If you find this workable, please reply back.

Hi Bala, I also have the same problem. Even exchange won't let me create receive connector. I tried your instructions: Right click properties on CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=<Domain>,DC=<> When I right click properties on CN=Microsoft Exchagne Security group. I'm missing CN=services?? Any suggestion on this?? BJS
