Did you encounter any errors while moving mailboxes? If you look under
the new home server Information store, do you see these mailbox objects
created? Have you checked the user object attributes to see if the
HomeMDB attribute was updated to the new server?

Old server is up and still housing 800 mailboxes. Some mailboxes work
fine, others still point to the old server. I've had about 5% that can
no longer access certain things like PFs or calendars, etc.

Forgot to mention.. The DNS name pointer is necessary only for the first
time Outlook startup after the mailbox move, and the profile updates
itself to point to the new Exchange home server. Consecutive Outlook
startups don't look for the old server.

In regards to the profiles, make sure your old Exchange server is still
active, at the least the old DNS name should now point to the current
Exchange server or your AD DC. You should not loose permissions as a
result of the move.

Subject: [ExchangeList] Moved mailboxes not re-homing
Been moving mailboxes within my org from a 2000 server to a 2003 box.
Moves go fine, but some mailboxes don't "home" to the new server name.
Users come in the next day and can't connect to the server as their
profile is still pointing to the old box. Is this a common issue?
Also, it seems that some mailboxes lose permissions to some public
folders, some other users lose perms to other user's calendars etc. Is
this expected behavior when moving mailboxes?
Thanks
