ADMT/ mail migration utilities from Microsoft puts an X.500 address on migrated mail-enabled objects for that reason. That allows replies to occur the without user intervention. The way you have it now, users would have to reply to the message with all new recipient information to make it deliver properly. Likely not an issue 30 days from now though, right?

Summary: Installed a new Windows 2003 server w/ Exchange 2003 at a client site. They were running W2K w/Exch 2K. I did not do an online migration. I replaced the original drives in the server and did a clean installing changing the company.org to company.local for internal dns. Problem: Emails that were sent within the organization based on the Global Address book prior to the new server will not deliver when users try to reply to them now. Error is "message undeliverable..." Solutions: I went in and updated the email field on contacts that were based on the former Global Address Book. But I don't have a clue as how to easy the users pain of having to always double check the email address prior to sending... Did I over look a tool that would have allowed me to export the Global Address book and then import it into the new Global Address book? Would this have allowed the replies to emails prior to the new server? Thanks for your input, TJ ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: al.mulnick@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
