When I add new mailbox I found this error
"The object xxx with the directory name 'xx' already exits. Enter a unique alias name on the General property page for this mail recipient" Anyway, I lookup all data in Recipients but there is no the same alias.
How should I fix this problem so I can add the new one.

The alias name is not what you should be concerned with, check for mailboxes with the same directory name. This is how exchange makes associations to mailboxes. You may have changed the alias but a duplicate directory name still exists. The directory name can be found under the "advanced" tab of the users' mailbox properties check this for duplicates. You can also specify a specific directory name instead of taking the default alias name as the directory name in your mailbox creation.
