The first one we did was merging one org/site (1500 mailboxes) into an existing site (1500 mailboxes) in another org (20,000 mailboxes) and it went ok. The one we are doing now is merging 7 sites (1500 mailboxes) in one org into another org (30,000 mailboxes) and so far all has been fine. As for public folders, we've been using InterOrg Rep very successfully long before we started the MSW. We have about 30 folders (plus free/busy) that we sync this way and it's working great.

I've found that there's a huge difference between merging two sites within the same org into one, and merging two organziations together. Merging separate orgs can get ugly with MSW, because you lose PFs, and its a destructive process. ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
