Use profgen in your logon script. http://www.exchangeadmin.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=4853 Also, add an x500 address to the new mailbox so that old mail sitting in other mailboxes in your org sent from the original mailbox will not be returned as undeliverable upon reply. X500 addresses are in this format: /O=Orgname/OU=Sitename/cn=oldcontainername/cn=oldalias (or same alias) Add new "other address". The Address type is x500. Looks like you will need to become proficient in excel to do this efficiently. -----Original Message----- From: Mitchell Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2001 11:20 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: moving mailboxes and having problems Good afternoon, Exchange 5.5 sp4 and Outlook 98. When moving mailboxes from one container to another is it true that a person's profile has to be refreshed by doing a check name after keying in the mailbox name? I have been testing this and find that it is true. We have 1638 mailboxes to move from one container to another. We are doing the following: back up the mailbox to a PST, delete the mailbox, add the mailbox to the correct container, restore the mailbox from the PST. Then when trying to sign in we get unable to open default folders. I thought it might be a timing (synching problem) so I wanted 20 hours and still get the same error. Please let me know if you know of an easier way to move these mailboxes. (I know Kevin Snook company has mailbox mover but that is one at a time also and we really haven't got that to work either.) Happy holidays.
