Here is what I am trying to accomplish. In my environment, I have Outlook
2003 configured to connect via RPC over http to a set of Settings. I am changing the entire back end. Without having to manually go to each machine to change the settings, what are some of the ways I may be able to accomplish this task i.e Visual Studio (Visual Basic) Script to create/change profiles i.e Registry changes for settings inside Outlook profile Where are the profile settings kept. Again, as an example of what I am trying to do, the current environment is similar to the following Profile: EXCHANGE Server name: exchange.mail.com Username: xxx Exchange URL(http) settings Testmail.domain1.com SSL connection Msstd:testmail.domain1.com On Fast/Slow networks connect with http first, then tcp/ip Basic Authentication What I want to do is run a script, or something, that will take the profile called Exchange and change the following settings: Server name: Diffexchange.mail.edu Username: xxx Exchange URL(http) settings Newmail.newdomain2.edu SSL connection: Msstd:newmail.newdomain2.edu Etc ,etc Any ideas on the best way to do that. My second alternative is to just create a brand new profile with the new settings. Any help would be appreciated. On the back end, the new mailboxes will already be populated. We are migrating the mailboxes onto the new server and new domain |

If you use the "move mailbox" procedure there is nothing extra that you have
to configure on the client level. Upon first starting Outlook after the move Outlook will connect the old server and the old server will "tell" Outlook that the mailbox has been moved and redirects to the new server. Your Outlook settings will be automatically updated then. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- "booker@mgt" wrote in message ...

Unfortunately, there will not bw a Trust between the two Exchange
organizations, however there will be teporary cooperation to copy over all of the mailboxes. I believe, a move mailbox requires a trust if it is two different forests/exchange organizations, correct?

Can the move mailbox procedure be used in an enironment where the two
exchange servers are in two different organizations/forest, with no trust?
