Thank you...I thought that I was going to be fine and I also am doing exactly that. &nbsp;I am trying to move off the old 2003 platform. &nbsp;It been a struggle since my old Exchange server was also a domain controller, but I have since upgraded and demoted and have moved off the old exchange server 2003.<br />
