Hey everyone,

We were running a Linux (PostFix) mail server where everyone was using POP3
and a .pst file to view their email. They were using Outlook 2000 as the
client. We are moving to Windows 2003, Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2003. Our
DCs are Windows 2003 too.

Here's the problem:

After we convert a user we move all of their data from their .pst file up to
the server. After we do that, we see that their DLs on the server side are
now empty! Anyone know what is going on? Any white papers? Thanks for any
and all help.
