After thinking about it, you are right. If the server does go down and you delete and create a new mailbox on another server the profile would have to be changed or recreated. The reason they wanted to do this was to reduce email outages while the DR team recovered the old mail and made it available via a pst by exmerge. Or some other method.

If the original server is down? I am afraid that the user would have to
re-configure Outlook profile manually and then log back in, otherwise
Outlook will be trying to contact the downed server and time out.

I had a question poised to me to which I never thought about or tested.
In
an E2K/MS2000 domain setup in mixed mode, with muliplte email servers in
one
group. If one of the servers goes down and all the customer wants to do
is
restore email flow for those users affected. He would like to know does
he
just delete the mailbox from the affected users AD account and create
new
ones on the other email servers? I never tried it?  What does the users
have
to do logout of Outlook?

I think deleting mailboxes make new ones and have the users logoff and
back
may be ok.

Thoughts?
