With modern versions of outlook it updates the profile. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeremiah Rumball Sent: Wednesday, October 9, 2013 7:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] Exchange to Office 365
I was under the impression that auto-discover only changed the proxy settings but not the server specified in the profile. Is this not the case? On Oct 9, 2013 7:06 PM, "Michael B.

At some point you will move autodiscover from pointing onsite to Office365 and that will allow the devices to resync their profiles. From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Jeremiah Rumball Sent: Wednesday, October 9, 2013 6:52 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [NTSysADM] Exchange to Office 365 Hi all, I have a few questions regarding an upcoming mail migration. We have a client who is currently on an in-house Exchange 2010 server. They are potentially moving to Office 365. We've had some good results with migration tools in the past so that part should be covered. My questions are regarding the local users and their Outlook/mobile device email accounts. Ideally we'd like to reduce the amount of work required for each end user. Is it possible, when performing a migration of this kind, for the users to continue to use their existing Outlook profile (active sync accounts as well)? If so, what needs to happen for this to work? If not, what are some steps we can take to reduce the amount of re-configuration for each user? I've done some reading about a hybrid Exchange/Office 365 setup but it seems to me that the profile will still need to be re-configured once you make the final cut over. On that note, can anyone comment on why you would use a hybrid environment and whether or not something like that would help here? Thanks! Jeremiah
