Unable to connect to a reconnected mailbox in Exchange

I recently reconnected a number of mailboxes in Microsoft Exchange 2010 Service Pack 3 and following Active Directory replication I was unable to connect to those mailboxes either with the Exchange Management Shell or OWA with the following error messages:

Couldn't connect to the source mailbox 
Your account is disabled

In order to resolve this issue, I had to run the Clean-MailboxDatabase cmdlet agaisnt the mailbox databases to update the status of those mailboxes.

Get-MailboxDatabase | Clean-MailboxDatabase
