If you moved mailboxes from your 5.5 to 2000, then you probably lost your single instance of all the attachments.. that could be a reason for your increase in DB size. Also during mailbox moves, a lot of log files are created, I turned on circular logging during the mailbox move process so it wouldn't create so many log files. Then turned circular logging off after I was done.
As for not being able to mount your store.. There can be 100 reasons, check all the event errors and see if any of them point you in the right direction.

We moved the log files to another location and things went back to normal. The same thing repeated itself 1 week later. Moved the log files again and since then all the services start up without a problem, however the mail stores will not mount. Public mail store is abnormally large - 6GB - was 50MB under Exchange 5.5. Thanks for any assistance.
