For some time we have had problems with being able to send or save attachments. (Outlook 2000 and XP clients on Exchange 2000 server)

We are attempting to rebuild our exchange server and to that end have installed a second server and installedexchange - all seemed to go well.

We are tryiny to move mailboxes and get an error and this event ID 1008 from MSExchangeAdmin:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: MSExchangeAdmin
Event Category: Move Mailbox
Event ID: 1008
Date: 8/21/2002
Time: 2:01:29 PM
User: N/A
Computer: FPCMX
Description:
Unable to move mailbox 'Username'.
Error: The MAPI call failed.
MAPI or an unspecified service provider.
ID no: 80004005-0000-00000000

I believe this is the same problem as when I try to export to a PST and it fails on files with attachments and relates to the original attachment dilemma. Anyone have a good idea??

Ouch!, have you check the integrity of the IS using eseutil /G - i have had a similar problem with a damaged info store. If it is damaged - use ExMerge this doesn't seem to be too choosey about potential store issues.Good Luck.

Check the mailbox size quotas on the new server. You will get the above message if the size of the mailbox you are trying to move exceeds the mailbox limits of the new server.
