I agree with Simon (as will most of the other Exch admins here) that if you can just move the mailboxes to a different mailstore, its not worth doing the offline defrag. You get essentially the same result when you are able to delete the original mailstore. Your speed symptoms sound strange,

NO, If you had to install a certificate to your mobile devices (most don’t, but those darn early Verizon Qs), you probably installed the certificate authority as trusted, not the certificate itself. So if you renew from the same CA, you should require no additional work on the mobile devices

So I am surprised no one actually answered this question. Using WM phones can be just as secure (if not more) than Blackberries, since WM data isn't forced to hit a Canadian server en route to the phone. (Our org runs both, we run BES, I like it. I am just trying to answer the question posed).

Sure, but the issue is keeping them from adding the permissions back. So by default domain admin shouldn't have full access to all mailboxes, script the removal of all domain admins from mailbox perms and then create a mailbox admin group and add the folks that should have access. Then add that
