Outlook re-prompting for credentials.. over and over and over

I've got a user running Win 7, Outlook 2010 and has been humming along for the past couple of years now without a hitch.  he needed access to a secondary mailbox, so I give him -AccessRights FullAccess and -AutoMapping $false.

Except now his outlook continuously prompts for credentials to the secondary mailbox, and randomly his own.  He gets confused after a dozen or so prompts then winds up locking himself out.

So night I will try moving his mailbox to the MS server and back here to see if the move will repair any funkiness with his account.

*EDIT* I should mention that I removed and recreated his profile a few times, changed the AutoMapping to $true, changing the permissions on the secondary mailbox a few times.  nothing else has helped.

*EDIT EDIT* So the issue might be fixed now... I removed his permissions to the secondary mailbox, recreated his outlook profile.  Re-added the FullAccess permissions but made sure that AutoMapping was set to $false.  Then actually added the secondary mailbox as an Additional Mailbox in his profile.  It opened up and did not prompt for credentials so.. *FingersCrossed*
