Email Migration

[Guest]

Guys.
is there any way to switch the client outlook 2000 or 2003 automatically
from one serer to other?
this is the scenario.
my current server called MAIL it is a Exchange 5.5 with 200 mailboxes,I
installed a new mail server called NEWMAIL with Exchange 2003. I need to move
all the mailboxes to NEWMAIL and I need to setup all the Outlook users to the
NEWMAIL server.. which is the best way to do it instead goes PC by PC? is
there any script or tool that can help me with this?
thanks and advance

This is typically an Exchange Newsgroup question, I have never done a 5.5 to
2003 but I have done a 2000 to 2003 and I didn't have to do anything in the
clients as they automatically picked up the new server. You would need to
give more information when you post to the Exchange group especially on how
you intend to do the server migration. FWIW I used the move mailbox command
but cannot remember if that's a feature of 5.5. Microsoft have posted
various articles on how to migrate from 5.5 and up.
Good Luck
