I just finished the "restore" when I moved mailboxes from one server/domain to another. While my users are satisfied, (many of them did not even know we moved) and I can see that mail is coming in and out. I wonder if I have missed something in practice or principle.
I moved everyone off the domain controller / exchange server (I know - BAD!) to a stand alone exchange server in a new domain. Next I connected the clients to their new empty mailbox, and moved their old information via PST to the new mailbox. I have ~50 users each with boxes about 5-25MB. My questions are 1) I will not benefit from single instance storage until those items reach an archive date and a moved down to client archive folders - right? 2) Do "PST restores" (like I did) introduce the possibility of corruption or anything potentially catastrophic I should be aware of? 3) Is there something I can do now to clean up this, or is it fine? 4) Was there any other way to move these mailboxes between domains ( I read Crowley's Method and it didn't seem to apply)? If you have other recommendations or prefer to contact me off list I would enjoy your input.
