We have 1 Exchange Organisation. 5 Sites. In Site1 we have Exchange and Exchange1. I successfully moved all recipients, connectors, public folders etc from Exchange to Exchange1, including an Internet Mail Service. I made sure that mail was being sent from and received by Exchange1's IMS and the IMS on Exchange was idle. I stopped all the services on Exchange and left it like that for a few days. No problems, no lost email. On Monday morning I deleted Exchange from the Organisation.
Since then all email from Site1 sent to the internet has disappeared without a trace, no bounce back, no errors in the error log. Using Message Tracking I can see that the messages have been submitted to the store, but haven't gone to the IMS. The IMS is still successfully receiving email. Other sites with their own IMS' have had no problems, and I can track their messages from Submitted to the store and getting to the IMS. I have temporarily enabled Site2 to send Internet email from the rest of the organisation, to get around this problem, but I don't particular want our Frame Relay link being hit by all the internet traffic from Site1. Any ideas? I'm guessing I should have deleted the IMS on Exchange before deleting it from the Organisation? Is there anyway I can fix this and get the emails that have been sent. Given I have a workaround at the moment I'm not stressing too much, although we have a number of disgruntled users that have to go through their sent items and forward sent emails to people that haven't received them. I'll be contacting PSS on Monday if no-one is able to suggest a solution.
