Hi,

Hello there,
 
Scenario:
Domain A: Win2000Server DC without Exchange ( 50 Domain users)
Domain B: Win2000Server DC with Exchange2000 in a single server! (5 people using the mailboxes -  small mailbox size)
 
For some historical reasons, that 5 people in Domain B also exists in Domain A but with different username. (They don't logon to Domain B from their PCs but simply using the mailbox and calendaring function via Outlook.)
 
Case:
I was told to install Exchange2003 on a new Win2003 server onto Domain A as member server and deploy mailbox to all Domain users.
 
My Question:
1. Should I simply ask that 5 users to export their mailbox out and import to Exchange2k3 ? or do it through the migration wizard?
 
With only 5 users I would either tell the users to export their emails to a pst file or do it myself for the users.
 
2. That 5 Domain users with different username in Domain A & B, is there any problem when I help them to import the mailbox onto Exchange2k3?
 
No problems
 
Thx in advanced
