Remove old public folders from favorite

[museudf]

Hi all

We recently migrated from exchange 5.5 to exchange 2003. A couple of users had some public folders from the old 5.5 server in there outlook public folders -> favorites. Now they can not remove those public folders because stupid outlook is trying to locate the orginal exchange server that they public folders used to be hosted on.

My question is this, is there a way to remove these public folders from outlook public folders -> favorites without turning the old 5.5 server online. This setting seems to be bound to the mailbox and not outlook because a fresh install of outlook still shows the same favorites.

Any help would be great, thanks

I believe if you just create a new Outlook profile the old folders will not be present any longer.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Hi

I have already tried that but no luck. Creating a new outlook profile or setting the users mailbox on a new machine with a fresh install of outlook does not resolve the problem. Any other suggestions. Thanks

I would just check in ESM to see if there are any references there and try to remove them.

I hope you find this post helpful.
