Depends on how you move the mail box. If you use "MOVE MAILBOX" in Exchange admin, then I believe that you do retain SIS, but you lose any mail that was in the user's "Deleted Items Retention" area of the Information Store.
If you use EXMERGE to move the mail, they you loose SIS.

I'm planning to install a new server and then move the existing mailboxes across to it. Is single instance storage retained on the new server for all the moved mailboxes? I've already checked on the MS website and the following article says it will be: Store Does Not Grow When Moving Users to Another Server (Q175481) But just wanted to double check with someone who's already done it.
