I sent the message below yesterday.  Apparently it didn't go through so I'm
resubmitting.  Since the first submission I've run into another problem
which is probably related to the first.  I've added the additional
information below.

I ignored the above error and proceeded with the migration process.  I got
the same error when running DomainPrep.  After I installed the Active
Directory Connector lots of stuff migrated over into AD (like email
addresses, custom recipients and distribution lists).  However, the
properties for the user accounts don't reveal the Exchange tabs.  I'm
guessing this is because ForestPrep or domain prep didn't do their job.
Note, in addition to running Forest and Domain prep from the machine that
will be running Exchange, I also ran it on the DC and got the same results.
I'm running the Active Directory Connector on a third Server 2003 machine
that will be trashed after migration.

And how can I get the Exchange tabs to show up on the user accounts
properties?

Thanks for your help.
