I thought that this would be a common issue when moving a site from a peer to peer network to an exchange network. When setting up customers on a SBS domain for the first time they usually have existing mail data on their computers harddrive connected to a pop3 account. I there a way of automatically moving this data (mail, contact, tasks etc) to their new exchange account?

Hi! Jason,

the easiest way would be to export the user profile data into a pst file and then use the exmerge utility available from Microsoft to import it to the Exchange server.

The data will already be stored in a .pst file for each user. After reconfiguring mail support to use exchange, use the import function in Outlook to import the pst back into thier mail.
