I did reply to this but am not sure if it came through. Thanks Tony that was a great help - forgot about the retention time - d'oh. I did have a bit of trouble doing this tho as when I deleted the user, there was no red cross against the mailbox so I could not re-attach. Ran clean-up agent and came up OK for future ref.

PSS didn't give you exact directions.

Perhaps this is a Small Business server restriction? Doesn't make much sense if it is. Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Couch, Nate [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 15 September 2003 13:17 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Re-assign/ Move mailbox It seems to me that all you need to do is add the new AD account to the original mailbox and then remove the old "corrupt" account from the permissions. Maybe I am missing something, but that should do it.
