Soon I'll be starting a migration from an MDeamon e-mail system to an MS Exchange 2003 system. The problem is that all users currently POP mail from the MDeamon and the new system they won't. Is there an easy way of migrating all users to the new settings and to import their contacts, calendar appoints and inbox e-mail into the new exchange system?

What mail client are they using? Are they using Outlook?

If Outlook, you can push their .pst files to their new mailboxes 1 of 2 ways:
1) client side -- use Outlook to push their .pst file to their new exchange mailbox
2) server side -- collect the user .pst files and use EXMERGE to push the .pst files into the user mailbox. Google EXMERGE for more detail

If you're not using Outlook client in the current setup, if you can export or otherwise get the user data into .pst files, you can do the above.

Yup... I'm using Outlook. Thanks for the EXMERGE. I'm going to try that.

Any way to then adjust each user's outlook settings o stop POP'ing from the old server and start exchange'ing to the new (without going to each user)?
