How to move all emails from mailbox to an external email account in Exchange Server 2007?

I have a user who is leaving the university in a few days. The user would like to forward all of their old emails from their mailbox to their G-mail account. Will setting up email forwarding forward all of the old emails to the G-mail account or just the
new emails that are received after setting up email forwarding? If forwarding isn't the correct solution; then what is? We are running Exchange Server 2007.

No, as you've suspected the forwarding will only affect new messages coming into the mailbox, not existing ones. Additionally, if you did get all existing messages to forward to another account (you could probably do it by creating a rule in Outlook) then
the gmail account would show every single one of them as arriving now, and lose their existing send date.
Probably a better option would be to export the mailbox to .pst, and then assuming the user has their gmail account configured in Outlook somewhere as something other than POP3 they can then open the .pst file on their machine and copy the messages over
to their gmail account, which I think would also preserve the original information.
You could do that via the server using Export-Mailbox as described here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/bb266964(v=exchg.80).aspx (note it has to be run from a 32-bit OS with the Exchange Management tools installed), or the user could just as easily do it themselves from within Outlook using the Export option.

  • HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account.  An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
    If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state).  If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
    Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

  • How to move all files from a folder for a user to a centralized folder on a core server with a GP

    Hello,
    I was curious if someone know how to move all the files of a user "local" profile on a Terminal Server to that of a centralized server where the "local" profile of like the user desktop, favorites, setting, etc are stored in the event
    the local profile on the TS become corrupt it can pull from this server...
    The problem I have is no matter what I tell users to save there files to our Y drive that is a folder that is synced
    across all 6 of our TS servers, users still store files on there desktops, so as you can imagine if one day they are on one server, then next day they could be on another and there files aren't the same.... hence the reason why I want to move all there files
    to the centralized server so when I redo the profiles from scratch on the TS server in the farm they suck files from the core server and have all of the files they are used to having.... 
    So I was curious and I've heard from some this is possible in a GP, but I'd like to move the contents of all 6 TS for
    each user or if I have to d this on  per user basis I will, just looking for a way to move the files....

    Hi Trevor,
    To move all users’ desktop to a server, we can use Folder Redirection to do this. The path for Folder Redirection is:
    [Group Policy Object Name]\User Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Folder Redirection
    In this situation, we can choose to redirect desktop to the root of a network file share or a folder on a network share.
    Regarding how to configure this, the following article can be referred to for more information.
    Configuring Folder Redirection

    Hope it helps.

  • How to move all files from a folder for a user to a centralized folder on a core server

    Hello,
    I'm curious if there is a batch file that can be made to move the contents that are setup like this....
    I'm having to redo a TS cluster and I'd like to make a batch file script that can be executed that moves the contents of say 'jsmith's local desktop profile @ \\NGTTS1\users\jsmith to a centralized folder on our roaming desktop profile server that saves
    all of the files for the desktops @ \\NGTFS1\users\jsmith.
    The problem I have is no matter what I tell users to save there files to our Y drive that is a folder that is synced across all 6 of our TS servers, users still store files on there desktops, so as you can imagine if one day they are on one server, then
    next day they could be on another and there files aren't the same.... hence the reason why I want to move all there files to the centralized server so when I redo the profiles from scratch on the TS server in the farm they suck files from the core server and
    have all of the files they are used to having.... 
    Now I know I can do this with a MOVE command I've just never done one to this exact.
    Hopefully someone knows the command to move all the contents of one folder on one server to the folder on a different server. I've already got the bulk of the coding done of the .bat script I just don't know this move command:
    would it be this:
    move \\NGTTS1\users\jsmith *.* \\NGTFS1\users\jsmith
    any help would be appreciated, I'm sure this is a easy command to do!
    This is the coding I have so far....
    @echo off

    In Windows we would do this using Group Policy.  There is a Policy setting that csn move the Desktop folder to any server you want to move it to.  Once set it will automatically do this for you.
    You should post in the Group Policy forum to find out how we use Group Policy to manage users profiles in Windows.
    You cannot use a script to relocate a users Desktop folder.  The desktop is locked by the time the users logon script is finished running.  It the desktop and profile are already being managed by Group Policy then this can only be done with GP.
    There are also numerous issues associated with deployment and re-deployment that you need to address  Post your questions in the Winows Deployment forum to get assistance with deployment issues.
    Again - want you are asking is not generally possible because of how Windows is designed.  This would only likely work on a simple system or on a stand alone PC and then only under a very limited set of circumstances.
    Use GP folder redirection to do this.  For deployment use Deployment Forum and for TS specific issues post in the RDS forum. 
    All of  this needs to be considered correctly for TS users inn a TS Cluster environment. (TS Cluster?? - not sure what you mean by that.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • How to move all images from a site to a new folder and not lose links?

    I have always wondered this.....tried a few things with no success..Whenever I take over a site from someone, a lot of time the previous designer did not make folders for ANYTHING including images.....so in thier main directory they have 20 html pages, 200 images and css files etc.....I can not think this way.....I want to just make a folder for images...put all the images there.....a css folder....etc. Once I do this all my links are lost and it is to much work to replace each one with the broken link finder in Dreamweaver......In some other applications like Logic Studio ( a music production application as an example ) it is very similar. Your main song file is pointing to linked audio files all over your hard drive....If you decide you want to move that drive it will search for the linked audio files and when it can not find them it asks you to specify the new folder or search manually for them.....if I had moved 200 audio files it comes in quite handy because I can just point to that new folder and im done.......finally, my question is what would you guys recommend for doing this? Moving hundreds of image files so that I can organize things...........any help would be GREATLY appreciated...I have googled but found no great technique...

    I'm having the same or similar issue...  I think...  trying to do a little house cleaning in the file structure.  For example, in our events folder I'm creating archive folders (i.e. - 2004, 2005, ect...) and when I use the Files Panel to drag and drop the past event pages into the newly created archive folder, the pages loose all their links.
    Image link prior to and after moving are the same (../images/logo1.gif)
    It does ask me to confirm that I want to move the file but nothing about updating the links.  Is it due to the way the files are linked in the original files?
    Thanks in advance for any help!!!

  • How to move all info from original user identity to new user identity

    I bought a new printer and had some problems. In the process of 'fixing' the problems with the help of HP tech support I have since lost the ability to print from my original printer. I have found that I can print from a new user identity to both printers, so I'm figuring the easiest way to fix this problem is to physically transfer everything I have on my original user profile to a new user profile so that my printing problems are fixed. I can print to the new printer from the original user profile. So if there is a way that I could fix it so that I can print to the old printer that would be even better. But I've given in to the fact that I'm going to have to delete the original user profile and use a new one.
    If any one has any tips on the easiest way to do this with out losing anything I've aquired that would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm just taking a wild guess here but: the situation you described sounds like there is a problem somewhere with you original user's settings, probably in your ~/Library Folder. If you really were to transfer all of your old users information to the new account, including all files and settings there is a fair chance that you would also import whatever the problem is on your original account.
    So you should as you said either try to fix your old printer in your old profile so both work there or transfer only your data files such as the Music, Pictures, Movies and Documents folders from your original home directory to the new home directory. You could also import the ~/Library Folder in bits and always make sure that you can still print but that would probably take as long as finding the problem in the original account. I hope that helps amking a choice which way to go.

  • How do move ALL contacts from other groups into iCloud contacts group

    Is there a way to make Icloud contacts the default for the "groups" on my iphone ?
    OR
    is there a way to merge ALL the other groups into icloud contacts so i just have the one Icloud group to deal with on the iphone ?
    Thanks !

    This page: http://www.macworld.com/article/1054187/outlooktoaddress.html - has this to say:
    'Under Outlook 2002 you could simply open your contacts and drag them to the desktop to turn them into vCards. No longer. Try this and the contacts are converted to messages.
    While you can select a single Outlook contact, choose File -> Save As and, in the resulting dialog box, choose vCard Files from the Save as Type pop-up menu, this works only for individual contacts—you can’t export a group of contacts this way.
    You have a few options for eventually getting the things out of Outlook. The first is to select all your contacts and choose Action -> Forward as vCard. Outlook will create a new email message that contains all your contacts as individual vCard attachments. Send this message to yourself, pick it up on the Mac, drag these files into Address Book or Entourage’s Address Book and you’re good to go.
    Or Sperry Software can lend a hand with its $20 vCard Converter Add-in for Microsoft Outlook. This adds a service that enables Outlook to export all your contacts as a single vCard.'
    A Microsoft Help Page suggests:
    'The simplest way to do this would be to export your Outlook contacts to a tab-delimited file and then import that into Address Book.
    In Outlook select File menu --> Export... and select Contacts to a list (tab-delimited text).
    Save the new file to your Desktop.
    In Apple's Address Book select File menu --> Import... and select your file.
    Use the next window to match the field names in Address Book with those in your export file'
    If using either method you import into Address Book you can sync that to iCloud, which is probably easier than trying to import into the iCloud website. If you're prepared to splash out $20 the Sperry Software program would  simplify matters a lot.

  • In address book how do I move all cards from my 'last import' smart group into a new group?

    In Address Book, how do I move all cards from my 'last import' smart group into a new group that I will create? So far I am not being allowed to Edit Smart Group!
    Thank you x

    Simon
    You’re going to have a very big problem and very soon. These missing pics are the beginning of trouble.
    the total size of all my folders on my 60gb internal drive is 46.5 gb, yet only 1.9 gb is available,
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of free space on the hard drive for normal OS operations such as virtual memory and temporary files. Without this space the machine slows down as the OS hunts for free space, files become fragmented and applications begin to crash. The risk of data corruption increases exponentially.
    You must, as a matter of urgency, make space on the drive. I cannot stress this enough.
    You may be able to recover the pics from your camera card using an app such as MediaRecover

  • How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    The new mini has a Firewire 800 port. Likely the PPC version only has Firewire 400.  The OP will need a converter cable which is why I was asking first about what hardware is available and how much is being copied.
    Probably go with using the external hard drive if you decide all you want are data files.

  • How to move all the standard and adhoc reports from cube to multi provider

    How to move all the standard and adhoc reports from the basic cube to multi provider?
    i created this multiprovider to do the maintenence on the basic cube. for example the infocube physical partition, line item dimension and compression.
    what we decided to do is move all the Standard and ad-hoc reports from the basic cube to the multiprovider. How to do it? and make a copy of the basic cube and do the maintenence on the cube. please help.
    Thanks in advance sdn experts!

    Hi Les,
    This sounds good and one thing we try to always keep in mind when undertaking such activities is to always minimise the impact to the user and make the process as transparent to them as possible. So lets say you have your multiprovider and copied queries up in Prod, these queries will still pick up the data from the base cube.
    Now you need to make a copy of the base cube for some changes to the cube model, I would suggest that you copy the cube and make your changes on the copied cube itself. Then 9depending on the changes done) you can load data from Original Cube to New Cube. When this is being done, make sure that you change your queries to add a restriction on 0INFORPOV by Original Cube.
    After the load to the new cube is complete you can run reports restricted to each cube to verify the numbers. Then change the 0INFOPROV restriction in the queries to point to the New Cube and disengage the old cube from the multiprovider.
    Hope this helps...

  • How to move itunes library from winXP to NAS drive

    Can someone point me to a location that has intructions on how to offload
    my Itunes library from my XP PC to my IOMEGA media center NAS drive? I've
    searched quite a bit and haven't been able to find a comlete set of intructions
    yet. Just trying to free up disk space on my desktop. It gets a bit confusing sometimes when they mention music files and library files. To me, they are one in the same, but I think they are not. Would be nice if there was a flow chart of
    how Itunes works and what each file component does. You know, like the difference between an .itl file and a .xml file?

    First of all I still don't know how to post a question. There is nothing in here that asks me to do so. Therefore I can only reply to one already asked. My problem is that I followed the instructions in iTunes which tell me how to move the files from the C Drive to another location (which happens to be my D Drive). After doing that it then tells me to drag the old files into the recycle bin, however, it won't comply and tells me that the procedure can't be performed because of copywrite protections. Where do I go from here? Or at the very least, how do I post a question in this forum the normal way?
