So if you can/have a 2000/2003 environment installed, it's a brainless procedure from EMC or EMS. We have done it multiple times back and forth from 2000 -> 2007.
I believe the article was what you were looking to do (ie the mailbox will work fine when moved back to 2003, it isn't 'marked for death from 2007') Hope that helps troy -----Original Message----- From: Stephan Barr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 3:17 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Moving from E2k7 to E2k3 Really? 'splain please. Ah are you saying that will move the mailboxes but it will still be an Exchange 2007 environment? This is going to be ugly I can tell. -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 5:12 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Moving from E2k7 to E2k3 Not quite the same thing as what you want to do :) ________________________________ From: Stephan Barr [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 6:09 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Moving from E2k7 to E2k3 Found it. This is from MsExchangeTeam... "Both Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 mailboxes can be moved (in either direction) with the Exchange 2007 tools. Exchange 2003 move mailbox cannot be used to move mailboxes to or from Exchange 2007 mailbox server." ________________________________ From: Stephan Barr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 5:05 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Moving from E2k7 to E2k3 I have a client that needs to move ( don't ask) from E2k7 to E2k3. Could this be as simple as installing E2k3 in the same site as the E2k7 server and moving the mailboxes? Make my day please.
