The message occurs ONLY when I (Enterprise Admin) to open a mailbox that is in one of the additional mailbox stores created so I could better control quotas. Ideas /suggestions?

by default even if you're enterprise admin you don't have rights to open somebody else's mailbox.

For all domain admins there is a explicit deny for that. This is inherited from Exchange org to the bottom.

simple workaround my be is add a new user which is simple a AD user.

then give this use full control on the Mailbox store

Our Enterprise Admin rights on the FirstMailbox store include Full Access; with Read AS and Send AS the only boxes with a Deny Access Inherited. Somewhere in the past ALLOW was checked on those boxes and the EA has complete rights...
SO I copied that on my new mailbox stores and Voila I can now open any mailbox in any store! Problem solved.
