  I've read through blog entry http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/communicationsserversetup/thread/8b428bd3-0509-4859-ac11-122bdbef06cc which was very informative.  The problem we have with our configuration is the Guest account has been removed from MSDB.  The blog entry suggests a workaround for this but it is unsupported.  Is there a supported workaround available to avoid me having to grant access to Guest to MSDB?  Can I create an account in MSDB with the specific privs required in MSDB for OCS - does anyone know what privs are required - but would this be supported?
  
  Many thanks,
  Caroline Young.
