Chand,
If the mailbox moved and the home server property does not change and
remains the old server name, you can try to change it by running the
Exchange admin in raw mode, and editing the property of the affected
mailbox. You start the admin tool in raw mode by typing admin /r from
../EXCHSRVR/BIN directory.
CAUTION: BE VERY CAREFUL WHILE USING ADMIN /R. YOU CAN CAUSE SERIOUS
DAMAGE TO THE EXCHANGE SCHEMA IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE CHANGING.
I DO NOT HAVE EXCHANGE 5.5 IN FRONT OF ME TO TELL YOU THE EXACT STEPS TO
MODIFY THE SCHEMA ATTRIBUTE TO BE CHANGED.

Subject: [exchangelist] Forcefully changing the Home Server
value of a mailbox in 5.5

Hi
I am running exchange 5.5 sp4 on Windows NT sp6a. I installed an
other server in the same site and migrated only one mailbox to this
second server and it worked. While I was moving this mailbox from the
new to the old one, the mailbox did not completely move.
The mailbox got transfered but the home server for this mailbox
is still shown the new one. While, I try to change this value to the old
one, it cannot as the server does not find anything on the new server.
Is there a way to do so...
Though this a test mailbox and I can delete it, but I want to
know the solution to this problem.

Chand
