I had the same problem. Instead of moving the users pst file to the exchange server, I imported them back into outlook & let the pst file remain local on the pc. This solved several issues. 1) It kept the information store(users mailbox) small which in turn helps load outlook web faster. (If you import the users .pst file & they are large .pst files it will take forever for the web client to load when they are on the road) 2) It gave our users a chance to keep all their old mail & move the mail they wanted & needed to view on the web to folders in the information store & still have the web load fast.
-----Original Message----- From: Chris Martin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2002 3:53 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Moving mailboxes to another server Quick overview: We have one domain controller and two member servers in the Forest; all are running Server 2000 with Service pack 2 and latest security patches. The Exchange Server has Norton 3.0 Anti Virus filters for the Exchange; we are using Norton Corporate Edition 7.6 over the entire network, with the client installed on all workstations. We have a 768 kbps DSL line with a Linksys BEFVPN41 router plugged directly into our 24 port switch. I setup DHCP on one of the servers due to having to disable the router's DHCP in order to do the necessary port forwarding for the Exchange Mail and Outlook Web Access ports on the Exchange Server. Question: We would like to move all data from "Personal Folders" in Outlook 2000 to the Exchange user mail boxes enabling their inbox, contacts, calendar, to be visible on the OWA page. That brings up the issue of drive storage space; is it possible to move the mail box/Pub stores over to one of the network drives on our storage server without reinstallation?
