RE: Changing Mail Servers
It's a pretty easy change. I just need to point them to the server name. I will then have to setup their archive folders and .ost.

RE: Changing Mail Servers
I think Exchange is intuitive enough to change the servername automagically, if you are talking about changing it in the profile for the User on their machines. At least Exchange 5.5 was intuitive enough to know that if I moved Users from Server A to Server B, the User did not have to do anything. The servername in the profile got changed on the fly.

When it is time to go live, what are your suggestion on how to change the server name on my clients? I thought there may be a registry entry that I can use regini with and change it, but I haven't been able to find it yet. There is the option of asking users to do it themselves. I am trying to avoid visiting each user. Any ideas would be helpful.

RE: Changing Mail Servers
I am going for Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2000 on a new domain. -Original Message- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:afyodorov;innerhost.com] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 2:51 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Changing Mail Servers I have moved users from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2000 and Outlook profile always updated itself automagically. Make sure that Exchange 5.5 server is still alive - Outlook will contact it as usual and will be told the name of the new server. -Original Message- From: Dale Geoffrey Edwards [mailto:Dale.Edwards;AmericanTower.com] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 2:17 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Changing Mail Servers I think Exchange is intuitive enough to change the servername automagically, if you are talking about changing it in the profile for the User on their machines. At least Exchange 5.5 was intuitive enough to know that if I moved Users from Server A to Server B, the User did not have to do anything. The servername in the profile got changed on the fly. If I am way off the actual topic, I apologize.
