Answered Outlook prompt: Your exchange administrator made changes restart outlook

    When we move a mailbox from one storage to another, the respective outlook 2007 client prompts that " The Exchange administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart outlook", outlook will work as usual

    Similarly when we move Mailbox configuration on HO Exchange 2007 server to DR exchange 2007 server, we get the same prompt earlier, so that users just restart outlook and get connected. Suddenly it stops for prompting, the outlook show disconnected always, now we are forced to inform the users to restart the outlook. Image if i have more than 300 users!

    As the message is prompting from outlook itself after checking some validation...... nothing to do with the exchange 2007 server.

    Any solution is Highly appreciated in advance

    Thanks

    Don't move mailboxes while your users are connected. :-)

    If you move a mailbox the profile has to get updated somehow - and Outlook is good enough to update it automatically, but it does require a restart.  Move the mailboxes in the middle of the night when most, if not all, of the users are offline.  Then when they start Outlook in the morning it will just update silently and they'll be fine.
