Hi
I've been lumbered with the task of converting users from Exchange server to a pop3 server. The difficult part of this is making sure that the users get all their data moved locally to their PC in .pst format. This would be fine if exmerge worked like it is supposed to. Unfortunately not. When you run the utility from the server it comes up with some fatal errors. I was told you are supposed to run it from the service account. What exactly is meant by Service Account? (I can only assume Administrator). I run exmerge from the exchange server.
Someone has mentioned that exmerge needs to be in a certain directory.
also It has been said that the service account needs to add itself to have rights on each individual mailbox being converted!
The error i got was using the 2 step method, when using exmerge to copy data to a .pst it came up with errors like below saying it cannot copy files.
[16:18:24] Error copying messages from folder '\Inbox' (MAPI_W_PARTIAL_COMPLETION)
[16:18:24] Trying to copy messages in folder '\Inbox', individually. To avoid duplicates in the target store, messages will be merged and not copied into the target store.
[16:18:25] Error copying message with subject 'Fwd: check out this groove...' in folder '\Inbox'. (MAPI_W_PARTIAL_COMPLETION)
[16:18:26] Error copying message with subject 'RE: Performance Statistics ' in folder '\Inbox'. (MAPI_W_PARTIAL_COMPLETION)
any ideas? I get huundreds of these when using exmerge
Thanks !
