RE: Moving users between OUs in Exchange 5.5
I now two accounts. One on each server. They have the same name Mike Mitchell (although the display name is different one has ORG so I can tell them apart) and they are owned by the same NT account (therefore they share the same password). I have added both of them to the profile on the Outlook ICON. The instruction state: 2. Log on as the Site Services Account and setup an Outlook profile to access both the original mailbox, and the newly created one, simultaneously. How is that done? When I do what I thought I was supposed to do, under delivery tab I only on account to choose from, the Original one. It has none under that and I can't change that. How do I change that from old to new? Also, how do I sign onto both accounts at once? I added the new mailbox to the folder list. Is that what is meant? What am I doing wrong? Please help me.

RE: Moving users between OUs in Exchange 5.5
I need to sign onto two machines at once? One on each machine. I have created the new account as you suggested. It has the same rights as the original account. The only difference is in the display name there is an orig to keep them separate in my mind. (Also the SMTP is different.) Do I sign onto each account user the Service account user id and password? I am so sorry. Not even my techie understands.

RE: Moving users between OUs in Exchange 5.5
The old message still contains the pointers to the old address (i.e. when replying, a new lookup isn't automatically performed). And that makes sense; to perform another lookup against the GAL or Contacts folder would add some unnecessry load to the server. It's reasonable for Outlook to assume that nothing has changed with the recipients' address(es) when replying to a message. * * Erik Sojka, MOS, MCSE * * Manager, Network Services * * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * -Original Message- From: JENSEN, TIMOTHY C [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 9:30 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Moving users between OUs in Exchange 5.5 Wouldn't the creation of an X.500 address on the new mailbox resolve the NDR problem on emails sent prior to the move?
