Import mailboxes into exhange 2010
I am working on a network with two separate forest. One forest was for email only and has a Exchange 2003 SP2 install. The other forest all the users log into and I am setting up a new Exchange 2010 server. I am trying to get rid of the email only forest.
I have created mailboxes with identical email address in the 2010 server. I exported all the mail boxes in the 2003 server with ExMerge. The problem I am having is with the Import-Mailbox command. on the 2010 server.
I have followed the instructions located at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb629586(EXCHG.140).aspx
and
http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2010/management-administration/exporting-importing-mailboxes-exchange-server-2010.html
When I run the following command
Import-Mailbox -Identity UserName -PSTFolderPath d:\UserName.PST -verbose
Error was found for Username (UserName@test.net) because: Error occurred in the step: Approving object. An unknow
n error has occurred., error code: -2147221219

Does anyone have any ideas

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
You could also have tried adding the Export or Import Admin account to View Only Administrators account and then try exporting or importing the same.

If you want to use Exmerge against Exchange 2010, you have to setup a server with some binaries of Exchange 2003 (Management Console). After that you can download and extract Exmerge on that machine.
To import pst's into an Exchange 2010 database, some rights has to be set on the Exchange 2010 database where your mailbox resides.
Normally you would have to set receive-as and send-as rights:
Add-ADPermission "Mailbox Database" -User ImportUser -ExtendedRights Receive-As
Add-ADPermission "Mailbox Database" -User ImportUser -ExtendedRights Send-As
Exchange needs some time to process this (rights cached...) so you may want to restart some Exchange services.
The only Catch with Exmerge is that it can't handle Unicode PST's.
