5.5 to E2K mailbox migration
Hi All, I'm getting about a 10% failure rate on our intrasite mailbox migrations from 5.5 to E2K. The errors indicate some kind of corruption in the mailbox per Q264119, although not apparent to the user. Has anyone found a quick fix or workaround for this particular error. Thanks.

Locally Scoped Connectors Not Allowed in a Mixed Exchange Server 5.5-Exchange 2000 Environment
Hi All, What would be the impact of changing my current site address space from site to org as we move to a mixed mode 5.5/E2K environment, which appears to be mandatory. I recall there being a problem in the past when 1 of our sites mistakenly scoped their address space to org, but cannot recall the problems it caused specifically. Thanks.

PST database?
Hi, Does anyone know of a database-based application that is capable of importing PST files into a single searchable database, (Other than Exchange or Lotus Notes), preserving all dates and attachments. We have a need to restore and search a lot of historical email data already in PST format on an ongoing basis, and looking for an inhouse solution. Thanks.

Orphaned adress book views
Hi All: Win2k/Exch 5.5 SP4 I still have invalid Address Book Views long after connectors after been removed, sites have been deleted and tombstones have expired.

RE: Trans logs
All the backups being performed are full, and yet the logs are not getting deleted. Where would you start in troubleshooting that problem, the backup system or Exchange? Thanks.

Site Design
OK, this may be a wacky question but have to ask it. 1)In an Exchange 5.5 environment, is there anyway to route server to server traffic through a 3rd party gateway, ie IS-MTA-Sendmail. This being a strategy to contain viruses on each server by filtering through Sendmail-Milter. 2)What's the usual recommendation on when/where to set site boundaries. Let's say you have a remote location connected by a T1, about 1000 users in that location all in the same NT domain as the other location. Would you not want to simplify routing and put them in the same Exchange site. Or is it generally recommended you put a site connector between remote geographic sites, even if there is sufficient bandwidth between them to support RPC. Last one, would you not have more flexibility in a E2K site design if you all start off in a single site, or is it just as easy to deal with multiple sites. Thanks.

Service account password change
What's the general recommendation on changing service account passwords. Should it be done periodically for security reasons, perhaps when an Admin leaves the company. Is there a good online reference for all the considerations in making the change. Thanks all.

RE: Client problem
Yes, all pointing to the correct server.
