Hello,

This is my first post to this discussion group - please be gentle!

We are migrating from Exchange Server 2000 to Exchange 2003. I have moved
*all* mailboxes and left the Public Folders until last (big mistake).

In a nutshell, the folders are not replicating. I have used the pfMigrate
tool to setup the folders for migration. I have verified that all the Public
Folders are set to replicate to both the old and new servers. I have
verified that the email address (proxyAddresses) are setup correctly for both
servers using ADSIEdit.

I have setup logging to the suggested levels and there is nothing obvious in
the Event Viewer. I do see the Replication Outgoing Messages on both servers
but no Replication Inbound Messages on either. I have not been able to see
the inbound message in the Message Tracking Log either.

This server has been up and running with replication for about ten days and
this issue has me stumped. Email messages addressed from a mailbox on the
new server to a test mailbox on the old server are transferred just fine.

Do I need to create a connector for Public Folder replication? Any
assistance would be gratefully received.

Kind regards,

Gary

Do you see the public folder hierarchy on both servers? When you look at
the properties of a sample of the public folders on both servers do you see
both servers listed as having replicas?

Hi Ed,

Thanks for the reply. Yes I do! The folders are listed on both servers and
folders are set to replicate on both servers (I have confirmed this by
querting the properties of each public folder listing on both servers).

This one has me stumped as I followed the instructions for replication. For
some reason it appears that the replication message is not appearing on the
'other' server. I can see an Outbound Message but no corresponding Inbound
Message on receiving server.

Kind regards,

Gary

You can send messages both directions between mailboxes on the two servers?

Hi Ed,

I can send and receive emails between two user mailboxes on the two servers.
However, for Public Folder Replication I can see an Outbound Message but no
corresponding Inbound on either server.

It seems quite bizarre really.

Kind regards,

Gary

Hi Leif,

Thanks for the reponse. I have already worked through this Knowledgebase
Item and I came to a dead-end. Email addresses are confimed as configured
and logging has identified that the messages are being dispatched but not
received at destination. I am seeing some X.400 error messages reported in
the Message Tracking database that may indicate the underlying issue but
these have not proved conclusive.

Kind regards,

Gary
