RE: Moving Mailstores in Exchange 2003

We went through this last year. We built some new Ex2k3 servers and then used the ESM to move the mailboxes over night. This gave us fresh information stores, no white space and helped reduce mailbox sizes, because the recoverable deleted items dont get moved across We had around 4500 mailboxes

Thanks for all of the comments and links. I had not come across the part about re-homing the mailboxes. This I would not like to do for 1700 mailboxes. The mailstore reorg of mailboxes is already being planned as I want to get the stores down to about 100 GB each. On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 9:36 AM,
