Sync PST files with Exchange 2003

We recently upgraded to Exchange 2003 from Exchange 2000. Because of the space limitation, users moved most of the data they wanted to keep to PST files in outlook. Now I have multiple PST file I would rather was stored on the Exchange server instead of lone PST files. What is the best way to import the PST data into their Exchange mailbox?
I have 25 users, each with 2-3 PST files.
Any help is appreciated, I will be here all night.

I don't know if this is the best way but from an admin point of view using the exmerge.exe utility would be the simplest. I would not recommend merging all the PST information back into the exchange databases. E-mail is not really well suited to be used to archive e-mail. I'd probably tend to re-assess your storage capacity and provide users with a specific mailbox limit which theyt can use from now on. If you need to backup their current PST data add this to your standard backup processes.
