Hi Everyone,

I have just migrated to Exchange 2007 and still have my E2k box running for Public Folder replication purposes - although I will decommision the server once I fixed all the snags.

Anyway, since the replication, I have a user for which I had to drop their mailbox and re-create it. Now when anyone internally sends an email to them using their outlook autolist it fails with an NDR. However, all external email come in to the user and all emails sent internally via the GAL (not the autolist) work.

I wonder if it because the user mailbox was created in one server in one administrative group and then the mailbox was dropped and recreated in another - would this be an x500 problem?

I don't want to drop any more mailboxes untl I understand why this is happening.

The NDR is below:

Generating server: bilbo.briarsgroup.local

t is the LegacyExchangeDN of the mailbox. The old entry would have been the same as the original exchange adminstratvive group but would have transferred it to the new e2k7 administrative group. When you deleted the user and recreated it, the mailbox would have the same email address but a new LegacyExchangeDN for the new exchange 2007 adminstrative group.

What you need to do is use adsiedit to edit the mailbox LegacyExchangeDN properties back to the old value. You can look at another migrated users LegacyExchange DN to get the prefix before the mailbox name.

I dont understand where to find the "migrated users LegacyExchange DN"!
