Thanks, I think that pretty much sums it up. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brett Fernicola Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2008 1:17 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: mailbox move gone bad
That's because that mailbox was probably already reconnected to the correct user on the new mailstore. I'm assuming here you have 2 mailboxes with the same name in exchange. One that's correct with all the data working, on some other store, and another that's got the same name with partial data on another store. You will need to temporarily disconnect that user from the good working moved mailbox and then attached the orphaned one back to himself or some other Temp user. Then you can do what you like with that mailbox. When all done just make sure you reattach the correct mailbox back to the user. It's a dirty cat mouse game your going to have play with both exchange and AD. This is also not the easiest thing for me to explain, but I have seen it happen a dozens of times in exchange 2003. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aristotle Zoulas Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2008 12:20 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: mailbox move gone bad Well, I now have the following problem: I cannot see the orphaned mailbox in exmerge. I tried to reconnect it to a hypothetical user and I get the message that it cannot be done as the mailbox has already been reconnected (it does not mention to who though.) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean Cunningham Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 4:25 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: mailbox move gone bad Additionally , move folders one at a time, when you get errors on a folder, move blocks of messages at a time till you narrow down the corrupt ones. Calander: change view then move them -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brett Fernicola Sent: Saturday, 8 November 2008 10:55 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: mailbox move gone bad I would use Exmerge to move it out to a PST. Then mount PST in Outlook under working account and pull items back into their mailbox. Tips: You may or may not have to fool around with removing the users exchange attributes etc to temporarily fix the broken mailbox. When all is said and done purge out the bad mailbox and make sure the good one is attached to the correct user and all his exchange settings are correct in AD etc. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aristotle Zoulas Sent: Friday, November 07, 2008 4:48 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: mailbox move gone bad Running Exchange 2003 x 2 Locations We move mailboxes between stores and servers on a regular basis w/o any problems. The last one we did only seemed to move 90% of the mailbox. Although it is completely usable in its new location, it is missing some data. The 10 % it did not move is in the original store with a RED X next to it in the system manager. Unfortunately in our haste to click 'NEXT, NEXT, NEXT' we did not view the error report (not sure if there was one). Is there any way to get at the remaining 10% or is it lost in Exchange CyberSpace?
