MoveTree can do exactly what you need, it will not effect the users mailbox.
It's old, but it still applies, I've used it successfully for this kind of move on Windows 2003 / Exchange 2003:

if I delete the existing user , and I create a new user, the old email box will connect without issues, because once it said access denied for this user
It should connect. When did it say access denied? When you re-connect? Or when you attempt to access the mailbox?

Is the parent domain configured to run Exchange? Do you have rights to the account in the parent domain with the Exchange admin account you're using?

Did it successfully connect to the renamed account then? And if so, where does Access Denied come in?

When doing the last option, remember to add his Legacy Exchange DN (fount by AdsiEdit in the user account) as an X500 address after you connect the mailbox to his xxx.com account.
