When migrating resource mailboxes from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 or 2010, if you have been using Direct Booking for the resources, you need to make sure to follow this article to the letter:

Next we looked to see if the messages were being delivered. Using the GUI message tracking interface in the Exchange 2010 ECP, we could see that the messages were indeed being delivered to the store. Using Get-MessageTrackingLog as indicated below gave us more interesting output:
