lost mailboxes

[jack...@hotmail.com]

I moved all the mailboxes from one Exchange 2003 server to
another.Exchange 2003 server. Unfortunately, the second server failed
with RPC errors immediately after the move so I could not move the
mailboxes back. Did a restore of the mailboxes on the first server.

However, all the users are now pointing to the failed servers-
essentially not seeing the restored mailboxes. Example:
Mailbox Store: USCOMAIL/First Storage Group/Mailbox Store
(USCOMAIL)

It should read:
Mailbox Store: USCOMAIL2/First Storage Group/Mailbox Store
(USCOMAIL2) [... with a "2" after USCOMAIL].

I can list out the mailboxes using System Manager. I even tried
Exmerge.exe to extract the into but it can't find any of the mailboxes
either. However, if I create a new mailbox - it will see it.

Both servers were running as Domain Controllers on Windows 2003 Server
Standard.

Is there any way to fix this problem?

Thanks.

Try to use ADSI Edite to modify the following user attributes to point it
back to the old Exchange server, and fix the RPC problem before you move the
mailbox again.

msExchHomeServerName
homeMDB
homeMTA
