Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You deploy Microsoft Exchange Server and Lync Server 2010 Group Chat in a Lync Server 2010 environment.
  • You enable user A for Exchange Server and Lync Server 2010. For example, you assign the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) address of "usera@contoso.com" and the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) address of “sip:usera@contoso.com” to user A.
  • You enable user B for Exchange Server. For example, you assign the SMTP address of “userb@contoso.com” to user B.
  • You add user A to a chat room by using the Group Chat administration tool.
  • User A signs in to the Group Chat client, and then user A chats or performs some activities in the chat room.
  • You disable user A for both Exchange Server and Office Communications Server 2007 R2, and then you remove the account from all chat rooms.
  • You change the SMTP address of user B from "userb@contoso.com" to "usera@contoso.com." You enable user B for Lync Server 2010 by using this new SMTP address and the SIP address of "sip:usera@contoso.com."
You try to add user B to a chat room by using the Group Chat administration tool:
