RE: Exchange 5.5 to 2000 Migration
IIRC, when we used the Quest/Fastlane tool at the Bird, didn't it offer an option for custom mapping of accounts? I don't recall it being well documented, at least not in their main documentation, but I'd bet this isn't all that uncommon a request. -- Roger D.

We will be merging with the University Exchange 2000 system. The account names of the users will be automatically created and will be different from what we have. My question is, are there any migration tools that can help us with moving our exchange mailboxes directly to 2000 without loosing all the calendar entries and username identity. Basically I'd like to map the usernames from old to new and use move mailbox wizard. If there are none (or too expensive) we will just exmerge to pst and restore the pst. Our users will not be too happy with this option. I heard that there are many 3rd party tools that can help us with this. Thanks for any suggestions.

RE: Exchange 5.5 to 2000 Migration
Yeah, pretty sure it did, but I thought we had to do some other funky stuff to get it to work. Randy did most of that I think.

RE: Exchange 5.5 to 2000 Migration
I didn't recall; that's why I didn't say. I'm pretty sure these products have that, but I'm not sure of the mechanisms they use to associate the accounts. And you're right, it was Eskens.
