XFOR: All Mailboxes Replicate After Running Migsmtp.exe (170540)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
This article was previously published under Q170540 SYMPTOMS
After you run the Microsoft Mail SMTP Gateway Proxy Migration tool
(Migsmtp.exe), which is included in the BackOffice Resource Kit, you will
notice all mailboxes are being replicated. This occurs because all
mailboxes are modified even if no change has been made to the mailbox.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Mail SMTP
Gateway Proxy Migration Tool of the Microsoft Exchange Resource Kit. This
has been fixed in version 5.0.1457.16 of the Microsoft Mail SMTP Gateway
Proxy Migration Tool. This build of Migsmtp.exe can be obtained by
downloading the new MigratNT.exe from the following location on the
Microsoft Web site:
In this version, use the new -X switch to prevent mailboxes whose proxy
addresses do not change from being modified and then replicated.
MORE INFORMATION
Migsmtp.exe helps replace a Microsoft Mail SMTP gateway with a Microsoft
Exchange Internet Mail Service by reducing the level of administrator
intervention. It preserves current Internet addresses of the recipients and
adds them as secondary proxies to the Microsoft Exchange Server global
address list, which eliminates the need for the end users to republish
their new Internet address for their business associates.
