Migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010 - MB's stuck
Hi all
I am migrating from Ex2003 to Ex2010.
I have the old "Could not delete source mailbox" problem. With the majority of Mailboxes running the cleanup agent a few times sorts it.
However there are 2 that are well and truly stuck.
Things I have tried, in no particular order:
Setting Maintenance Limit to 0 days
isinteg -fix
Replicating AD
Deleting mailbox results in it deleting it from Ex2010 also. Outlook cannot connect to either databases.
I tried changing the homeMDB and MTA values manually, to the right values. The Mailboxes now both show with a red X (progress...) in Ex2003 but still unable to purge as it thinks its still connected.
Event log shows maintenance for some reason keeping those mailboxes also.

Both mailboxes are now showing as on the Ex2010 system and are accessible via Outlook.
ONE of them just reappeared in Ex2003 with a Red X, and I cant do anything with it.
Cannot purge, as it is "connected to an exisiting user".
I dont want to mess anything up - what should I do to get rid of it from 2003?
