I just did a migration a couple of months ago and all the corrupt items that I looked into were old calendar items. There are a number of utilities out there that will let you look in to the mailbox an you can find the corrupt items. It is one mailbox at a time and would be a huge undertaking for very little gain. You usually cannot fix the corruption anyway. I would set the skip level to 10 and let it ride.

When I am talking about a 2 or 3 GB mailbox, I doubt they are going to miss those 20 emails or calendar items as Michael mentioned most of them are..

About half the mailboxes I've moved so far have had corrupt emails and I've had to restart the move skipping the corrupt emails. Is there a way to find the corrupt emails before I try to move them or should I just set the skip number to 10 and look at the logs after. Is there any way to recover the corrupt items?
