Boy, what a drag. I have lots of time invested in creating my rules, and it's really a bummer that it's not as simple as exporting the client type based rules. I understand what you are getting at however... Still, if the uploaded .pst file, still conforms to the old format (being the folder root, and going down through the tree), I don't see why they couldn't give us a nice little utility to extract the server based rules, and have them match up nicely on the new server.
If anybody has any definitive info on this topic, I would love to hear some more. Thanks again everyone :) Mike -----Original Message----- From: Edgington, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 8:28 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Server based rules exportable? What I'm not sure of is that I seem to remember that when you move the folders and rules to a new server, the rules breaks because they reference the folder by an ID as opposed to the folder name.. the ID for a folder named 'Stuff' on server1 will not equal the ID for a folder named 'Stuff' on server2.. so the rule will have effectively a broken pointer. -----Original Message----- From: Edgington, Jeff Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 8:25 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Server based rules exportable? I believe it is an option in the E2K version of exmerge... associated folder messages under options. -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 8:17 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Server based rules exportable? hmmmm, Now the last time I checked - someone correct me here if I am wrong - the latest 5.5 version of Exmerge moved rules, and then it was simply a matter of going into Outlook and re-enabling them, but the E2k Exmerge version does not move server-side rules - only the folders and items within. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Mike Anderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2003 20:06:00 -0600 >Okay, so can you elaborate on that more please? > >I am using exmerge to export my mailbox from the server, so I can move >it to another server.
