Sounds like a corrupt message in the queue you are attempting to view. Try pausing then stopping the transport service. Rename the queue (queueold) folder in the transportroles\data folder. Start the transport services back up. This has worked for me when we have messages stuck in the Hub Queues.

I have a nasty issue with my Exchange 2007 server that I inherited all of a sudden due to a death of someone. It does not respond to email internal or external. The Exchange Transport will not stay running either. Here are the errors I get when I launch the Queue Manager (server and domain name have been changed to protect the innocent). Any help would be useful, I hope: Microsoft Exchange can't connect to the Queue Viewer server on computer "server_nn.corp.domain.com". Verify that the Microsoft Exchange Transport service is started. It was running command 'get-queue -ResultSize '1000'-ReturnPageInfo $true -SortOrder '+NextHopDomain' -SearchForward $true -BookmarkObject $null -BookmarkIndex '-1' -IncludeBookmark $false -server 'server12.corp.tailfeathers.com". Microsoft Exchange can't connect to the Queue Viewer server on computer " server_nn.corp.domain.com ". Verify that the Microsoft Exchange Transport service is started. It was running command 'get-message -ResultSize '1000' -ReturnPageInfo $true -server 'server12.corp.tailfeathers.com' -SortOrder '+FromAddrss' -SearchForward $true -BookmarkObject $null -BookmarkIndex '-1' -IncludeBookmark $false'. Thank you in advance. Abby

Thanks mike even my problem was the same partially. Your solution resolved it. Other problem i had with my exchange server 2007 is simply the mails to other domains remain in queues for infinite time the senders simply get non-delivery reports. I've tried by restarting all exchange related processes, also performed few machine restarts. But still problem persists. Please suggest.

May 2013 - The NameTranslate object is useful when you need to translate Active Directory object names between different formats, but it's awkward to use from PowerShell. Here's a PowerShell script that eliminates the awkwardness.
