Not quite, Chris. The custom recipient in the Exchange 5.5 directory that points to the new mailbox must have an address of type X500 that contains the distinguished name (not the X.400 address) of the old mailbox. Chris is right that this explanation is based on assumptions about what you're doing.

You probably need to create an x500 address which matched the x400 address of the user's previous mailbox, but that's just a guess based on what you may or may not be doing to migrate users. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
