Re: Exchange 2003 SP1 Cross site mailbox moves - not working!

Yes the 5.5 servers are still around.

Exchange 2003 introduces the capability of cross admin/site group moves
with SP1.

However, if there is no Exchange 2003 server in the site I am moving
from, and moving to, it does not work (not even an option).

For example Site A has a 2003 and 5.5 server, and site B just had a 5.5
server, I could not do cross site moves. When I installed a second
Exchange 2003 server in Site B I could then move mailboxes from Site B
5.5 server to Site A 2003 server.

Strange.

Think its got something to do with SRS.
