Mailbox moveHello friends:
I have recently added a new Exchange Server2003 to our Administrative Group and moved few mailboxes from another Exchange 2003 server (in the same admin group). Even after moving the mailboxes over to the new server, the mailboxes still exist on the old exchange with a red dot on them. I tried to purge the mailboxes by right clicking on them, but getting error message "the operation cannot be performed because this mailbox was already reconnected to an existing user". Is there anyway to clean up the duplicate mailboxes still on the old exchange server. Thanks for your time. how did you move the mailboxes? if you really moved them, they should not
be showing up as disconnected mailboxes on the old server... -- Show quoteSusan Conkey [MVP] "Cody" <none> wrote in message news:OBmvCIrfGHA.2456@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Hello friends: > > I have recently added a new Exchange Server2003 to our Administrative Group > and moved few mailboxes from another Exchange 2003 server (in the same admin > group).

clicked-exchange tasks-move mailbox. Strange thing is these users now have a mailbox on the new server and on the old server as well. When you look at the user properties in the AD, it actually show that his/her mailbox is on the new exchange server. Thanks for your time.
