    I am having a problem and would like to know if you all could assist me with it? 

    Problem:

    I am trying to move a mailbox from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 and I get the following error:

     

    Unable to move mailbox 'username'.

    Error: Failed to copy messages to the destination mailbox store with error:

    MAPI or an unspecified service provider.

    ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000

     

    I have been able to move several mailboxes before and after this mailbox.  I have users on both Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 and everything seems to be functioning well.  This is the only mailbox that I have encountered this error (so far).

    Hi,

     

    I have the same problem and I can't find a solution. The Error only appears on one of 50 mailboxes.

    All normal tasks did not help (all fixes, reboot, googled, ...)

     

     

    thx

    Joerg

    Create a new OU with blocked inheritance.  Do not modify and permissions or rights on this OU just block inheritance.   Move the users accounts associated with the mailboxes that are giving you this error to this new OU.  Wait for AD to update then try to move the mailboxes again.  Hope this helps!

    I had the same problem. It turned out to be a folder in the users mailbox that had explicit permissions removed for everyone.  When I deleted this folder I was able to migrate the mailbox successfully.

     

    Easiest way to confirm is to watch the progress of the migration and note down the point at which the failure occurs.  Also in my case there was an message in the event viewer saying which folder had the issue.

    It might be you are you missing the Rcieve-As Rights with that Admin Account. Type "Get-MailboxDatabase -identity "YOUREXCHANGESERVERNAME\First Storage Group\Mailbox Database" | Add-ADPermission -user "YOURDOMAIN\YourAdminAccount" -ExtendedRights Receive-As" in an Exchange Powershell". Hope this helps

    This is true for importing PST files created using ExMerge from Exchange 5.5, 2000, or 2003. In addition to having the required Exchange Administrator rights, you also need to run this command from an Exchange Powershell prompt:

     

    Code Snippet

    Get-Mailbox | Add-MailboxPermission -User "<YourUserName>" -AccessRights FullAccess

     

     

    After successful completion, try to run the import commands again.  Also, make sure the PSTs are local to the machine you are running these commands from.  Good Luck.

    I received this error while importing .pst's recently.  It turned out that the .pst I was importing didn't contain and contacts (had been exported so as to not include contacts).  However, I was unaware of this, and so to reduce contact flooding in the user's mail profile, I was using the -excludefolders \contacts tag on the import process.  As soon as I removed the excludefolders it worked fine.

    After pulling our hair out for hours we had discovered that particular users has limits set on their individual mailboxes even though we removed all limits on the new exchange database.  I also ran the administrator permissions cmdlt but i think it was the limits holding us back.

    I had this problem when I tried to move one user from ex 2003 to ex 2007.
    I tried to set the fullaccess right,
    reset my exchange admin's role, download the rollup4 from MS, reset the user quota/limit..., anyway I can find online.

    none of them worked for me.

    So I just exported the .pst file. and deleted the old account,and created a new one on 2007, and import the .pst file.

    It worked finally.

    Thank you, this was the solution to my error:
