That is correct. I'd try to get to native mode first so you can move mailboxes if at all possible.

I presume then that if the Organization is NOT in native mode, you CANNOT move mailboxes between servers in different administrative groups. You then need to use EXMERGE or some other tool like it. Is that correct? This is what I thought, but wasn't sure. -----Original Message----- From: Ed Crowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 4:07 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: How to move two XCH 5.5 sites to one E2K Admin Group If the organization is in native mode, you can move mailboxes between servers in different administrative groups.

Can you use move user or do you have to use EXMERGE? Do you know if there are any circumstances when move user will work between Admin Groups when you are not in NATIVE Exchange mode? -----Original Message----- From: Tony Hlabse [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 2:19 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: How to move two XCH 5.5 sites to one E2K Admin Group It depends. I would look at MS's site. Sounds like if your moving from one org to another that Exmerge may be the way to go. You might want to research it a bit more to see if it fits your scenario. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bare, Ronald A." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 3:14 PM Subject: RE: How to move two XCH 5.5 sites to one E2K Admin Group > Are you saying that you can use a Move User command and you don't have > to be > in Exchange NATIVE mode for it to work between Admin Groups?
