NDR Between Internal Servers

2008-01-04 Thread Steve Szabo
We are ever so slowly creeping to Exchange 2007 (SP1) from 2003 (SP2). Today I moved some mailboxes from 2003, and the moves seemed to be successful. However, I am getting this NDR. A message is being auto-forwarded from a mailbox still on the 2003 server to a mailbox on the 2007 server. I checked

Thirded, on all counts. You don't run utilities that are designed to fix problems by slicing out chunks of data if problems are found, as regular maintenance. That's just crazy. You don't intentionally incur unnecessary downtime on a system designed to be up all the time, as maintenance, when al

Pretty sure the Autopicker in E2K3/O2K3 scenario only Autopicks out a time; if you have multiple resources listed, it will find a time all of them are available. When you book, they will all be booked. It's all different with 2007 components, of course. -Original Message- From: Don An
