I have used ExMerge to move mailboxes too. Before we went native mode, there was no other way to move mailboxes between servers if the servers belonged to different administrative groups.

I've used ExMerge consistently on production boxes. It is a valuable tool. You've never walked into a client that had setup an otherwise decent Exchange installation, but used a recipients container per department? You've never tried to retrieve as much data as possible from a corrupt information store? I've even used it to move a couple of mailboxes between Admin groups in Exchange 2000 (mixed mode). Extracting data from another company's remote exchange box (not sufficiently locked down) for future blackmailings (thanks, Tener.). I'm glad you never had a reason to. Are you still on 4.0? Just kidding.

I have been doing exchange since it was a fledgling beta called 4.0 I have never had any reason to do an ExMerge on a production box. -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 3:27 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Full access My guess is she has minions do it. -----Original Message----- From: David Strome [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 2:49 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Full access You have the great fortune of knowing what you're doing... -----Original Message----- From: Missy Koslosky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 1:20 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Full access Sometimes? Sometimes when? I have NEVER needed to use exmerge on a production box, and I have a been around Exchange for years and years. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrey Fyodorov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 4:16 PM Subject: RE: Full access Sometimes you need to export everyone's mail with ExMerge. That's when you need to have full access to everyone's mailbox. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Scharff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 1:01 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Full access Runs counter to several things I would consider best practices. 1. Domain Admin accounts should not be mailbox enabled. 2. Users should be logging in as domain admin accounts for day to day work. 3. All Domain Admins might also be Exchange Admins, but that doesn't mean that the rights should be applied to that group, rather those users should be part of an Exchange admins group. 4. Users with the ability to log into mailboxes should be limited to the smallest group of users possible. I'm sure there are others, but I'm hungry and headed out for lunch. > -----Original Message----- > From: Woodruff, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 11:56 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Full access > > > Why is this a bad design? > > _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
