Yes, in versions before 2007, you could include some special characters in the OU name. From 2007 and up, they remove the allowance. Microsoft has a tool that will allow you to remove it, however their documentation states that it is to be used, "in a lab environment only" and research has returned no examples of this being successful. Oh, and the local "Exchange rock star" is the one that put the period in the name in the first place. At least the one at the IT vendor we're allowed to use. The PST concept is going to be cumbersome. We've found one other product called "DigiScope" that will do the move at the EDB (Exchange Database) level and are looking at a demo of that as well. Fun stuff as always!
