Hello,
I am using Exmerge to take mailbox info off my Exchange 5.5 server. The problem I am having is importing the .pst files to our new Exchange 2003 server.
Here are the steps I have done.
1) extract 2003 exmerge onto exchange 2003 server in \progfiles\exchsrvr dir
2) perform the showsecuritypage reg hack see below:
3) open up exh system manager and right click to get properties of exchange organisation (top of tree in esm)
4) click security tab
5) remove the deny permission for the domain admin and admin groups...scroll to bottom and remove deny tick box on both groups
6) log in and out
7) run exmerge.exe and select import point to pst file and off you go !!
I am running exchange under and account called exchange, this account is associated with the following groups.
Administrators
Domain Admins
Enterprise Admin
Exchange Domain Servers
Exchange Enterprise Servers
Here is the ExMerge Log errors I am getting.
