hi - im moving mailboxes from a exchange 2003 server to another exch 2007 server. the exch2003 srv has ony 250 mb free. - I know that moving mailboxes will not free up space on the ex2003 server but will create whitespace in the database. What i would like to know is will it help in subsequent writes to that database. (ie will it now not fill up the exc2003 database drive as fast?) i mean will it stay at 250mb free for a while. - after i have moved around 20-30gb of mailboxes from it. - or will it fill up just as quick as it did before the mailbox moves? - please HELP
