Hi , Sorry , Under Exchange Tasks I have Only Move Mailbox, Delete Mailbox and Instant Messaging I could see Remove Exchange Attributes Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Mark Fugatt [mailto:mark@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2003 10:10 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Primary accounts http://www.MSExchange.org/ If you go into Active Directory Users and Computers and right-click over the account that currently owns the mailbox and select Exchange Tasks and then select Remove Exchange Attributes. Then go into Exchange System Manager, open the Store where the mailbox is, and right click over Mailboxes and run the Mailbox Cleanup process, the mailbox will then appear with a red X next to it, this indicates that it is a disconnected mailboxes, you will then be able to right-click over the mailbox and select Reconnect, this will allow you to select a user that you would like to associate the mailbox with. Here is an article that explains most of the process, except the Remove Exchange Attributes step: http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/MF022.html Hope this helps Mark Fugatt MCSE, MCT, Microsoft Exchange MVP Pentech Office Solutions Inc Rochester, NY Tel: 585 576 4750 http://www.4mcts.com <http://www.4mcts.com/> http://www.exchangetrainer.com <http://www.exchangetrainer.com/> _____ From: Falah H.
