Well, my boss was able to pull emails from backups and throw them in the new box. Thanks for the help.

Hey ntinlin, I figured exmerge was an option (I've never used it, but it sounds like a good name for doing this kind of stuff). My questions though is this: where do I run exmerge from? I can't get into the mailbox on the 5.5 server using outlook and that's the one that I need to pull the data...

I just found out that the defrag on the DB had started while the mailboxes were being moved. Now I know the cause... if only I knew how to fix it.

I set Exchange 2003 to move about 15 mailboxes from 5.5 last night. I had seven different instances running at different times (boxes moving to different stores). Two of the boxes ended up making a new mailbox on the 2003 server and leaving all the old info on the 5.5 server. This has happened...

I am having problems with users receiving NDRs when emailing a Public Folder (luckily it was already set to forward to the person who deals with those emails). I am in the middle of a 5 Exchange 5.5 to Exchange Enterprise 2003 migration and I know that is causing the problem. When I run...

We have one Exchange 2003 and five Exchange 5.5 servers. There was a HD failure on one of the 5.5 servers last week. Luckily the MDBDATA and MTADATA folders/contents were on a different drive. I put in a new HD and rebuilt the server, using the same name. Now when I try to install 5.5 on the...

I believe that the problem is that during the migration process Exchange 2003 made the wrong mailbox her primary... with 5.5 she was tied to two mailboxes. I gave myself permission on this Public Folder and it pops right up for me. I give her the same permission and nothing (I've waited days for...

Don't know if bumps are legal... just hoping someone has any info on this. Thanks

I have a user who had two mailboxes on a 5.5 server. I missed it during migration to 2003 and I'm wondering if there is a way to "merge" the two. When she logs into the network it uses what should have been the secondary account (what should have been the primary acct it added the ADC_XXXXXXXXXX...

The folder and its subfolders are still in the Admin programs. Nothing on folder has been changed... permissions are the way they are supposed to be. What I did yesterday: 1. Messed around with OWA "skins" (adding the xbox theme) 2. I moved a couple boxes over to the new server 3. Database...

In the middle of a migration from five 5.5 to one Exchange Enterprise 2003 server. Users were telling me for weeks that one of the addresses was failing; however, the woman that checks those emails said that she was getting them. They go into a Public Folder, the woman responsible for them...

I did a move of a very important mailbox from a 5.5 server (Backup) to our new 2003 server (Exchange) and now the box is on both servers. Any new emails that come in go to the box on Backup and all the old emails and contacts are on Exchange. Outlook 2000 only has access to the version on Backup...

The answer was to use Eseutil /p... I was able to recover the stores that would not mount after running that.

Like an idiot, I moved a database folder because all it had were logs in it... or so I thought. The folder was D:\Program Files\exchsrvr\Executive Storage Group. After I moved the folder I found out that Exchange System Manager will actually do it for you and now none of the stores in the...

Hmm, good point... I didn't look to see that I was still in 5.5 section. Thanks
