Exchange: Thank you mailbox migration wizard!

Hey, just wanted to give a big thank you to the team responsible for the Exchange mailbox migration wizard. I can’t tell you just how nice it is when a mailbox migration goes right.

Not that I expect problems, and with a fully tested migration plan that includes contingency planning you really should already know what’s going to happen before it happens. But it’s just a great feeling when things go off without a hitch! The customer is happy, I'm happy, and things get accomplished under budget and ahead of schedule.

I’ve performed mail migrations using the ESM method, Exmerge, and the Mailbox migration wizard (and in some cases a combination of methods : ) … and just have to just say how nice it is when things work out well.
