As to your point #1, you are correct sir. I practiced The Method back in the days of Exchange 4.0. Some things don't change a whole lot.

So don't get whiny. Furthermore, she actually answered your question as well. Two more things: 1- The automatic profile update has been there since Exchange 4.0 client/server as far as I remember. 2- You don't need to complete a certain amount of time as a member of the list before you read the FAQ. You do it WHEN you join the list. You go back and review the FAQ every month to look for updates.

If a colleague of mine has suggested that Outlook 97 clients do not reconnect automatically to the new server, what harm is there in sending a message to this list to check up? That's what it's here for! If you cannot respond to such questions without being useless and sarcastic, don't respond at all, I would hope you might have something better to do with your time. -----Original Message----- From: Hunter, Lori [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 7:45 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: changing Outlook client mail profile You don't do a thing except go read Ed's Move Server Method, which you clearly did not yet read, or you would have brilliantly awed us with your knowledge that you do not need to do a thing on the client. FAQ FAQ FAQ FAQ -----Original Message----- From: Sakti Chakravarty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 12:26 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: changing Outlook client mail profile Hi folks, We are installing an Exchange 5.5 server in an organisation with one other Exchange 5.5 server and are going to move everything from the old server to the new server. There are about 150 clients running Outlook version 5.0.2653.22 or less (which I understand implies they are all on Outlook97?). After moving the mailboxes, we need to point mail profiles to the new server, what is the best way to go about doing this? We were thinking of enforcing a registry change on each Windows client using the logon script (obviously this won't work for the Macs, but that's ok). I've discovered utilities like NEWPROF ... but I wonder if anyone can confirm this is the best way?
