Exchange 2007 Cross-Forest Migration
This is a follow-up to the post about renaming a domain with Exchange 2007, which you actually can’t do as it turns out, so this became a migration to a new forest. I was mostly working on the mailbox migration, so this post only covers Exchange 2007 to 2007 cross-forest migration.

Archiving Exchange 2007 mailboxes
A truly effective IdM system should be able to tidy up user data as part of the user-decommissioning process.
