Dear Members I would like to migrate one of the Office 365 A1 for faculty account to A3 Faculty license account but I wasn't sure if I migrate existing mails will be moved to new A3 license mailbox..? The reason why I am doing this because the mailbox size is almost full. Any help much appreciated. Faisal 🙂4KViews0likes2CommentsOffice 365 rollout
Order of 365 rollout. I have jus moved to another company and they are rolling out office 365. They are moving over everyone to Teams and OneDrive and later they are migrating Exchange. I think there is a problem with migrating Exchange after Teams and it has to do with AD profiles, but I am not sure. Can someone please give me best practice on this and can it be done in this order? Thanks Warren2.7KViews1like2CommentsMAP to Exchange Online Migration Tool
Hello. I'm looking for anyone with experience with the Exchange Online migration tab (Admin Centers->Exchange -> Recipients -> Migration) Are there any guides to using this service anywhere? I've opened a O365 support ticket, but the basic information the person gets wrong, tells me they know nothing about it. * I'm coming from an on prem IMAP server (so I'm only after email here, not calendar,etc..) * I want to synchronize accounts from on prem IMAP to O365. * I want the migration tool to keep the accounts synchronized. * This includes deleting messages from the O365 account if they have been deleted from the source account (during the subsequent daily update sync's) Any information shared would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.1.7KViews0likes3CommentsTake Over of Unmanaged Directory and Teams Question
I am kind of in a unique situation. Customer has been using their company email for MS services for almost 2 decades, mostly for Skype. I have figured I can get them to remove their business email from Skype and they can use a phone number and change the email to another one temporarily (at least). Could not find anything definitive on this, just guessing...... They have been invited as guests to Teams Channels hosted by other companies. My question is: When I do a take over will they be required to have a teams license to participate in those channels. I am hoping they won't need to be licensed for now. I am 6 months minimum from getting procurement, and do not want to screw up what they are using, I just need to get in to VLSC (which now requires a verified Entra ID). They have onsite exchange. From previous experience, I know that when you have to license for teams, it creates an exchange email address whether you want it or not, and anytime I have done this, it creates delivery issues with other exchange online accounts. So I don't want to mess with licensing M365 until I an ready to migrate online.1.3KViews0likes8CommentsIMAP email migration
I'm in the middle of migrating mailboxes from an IMAP server to 365. On the IMAP end, I have a user who has 2 email accounts with 2 (large) mailboxes and wants them merged into one Exchange user mailbox / account. Is this possible via standard migration tool ? I've migrated the first IMAP mailbox in one CSV file, but when I created a second CSV for the other I not unsurprisingly got the error: "Error: UserDuplicateInOtherBatchException: The user 'blah' is already included in migration batch 'blah' Please remove the user from any other batch and try again." I'm hoping to try and avoid a manual export/import of the second IMAP account if I can help it...1.1KViews0likes5Comments80 GM mailbox migration from gsuite to Business basic
It is very frequent to receive such queries to migrate big mailboxes on Gsuite to Office 365 with a business basic license. The basic license comes with a 50 GB mailbox size. Challenge is to migrate the big mailbox to office 365 without upgrading the license, due to a costing issue. Kindly provide the steps to do the needful.694Views0likes1CommentExchange Online - Seeing all aliases of dist list
Hello all, We are preparing to sync our on prem AD distro groups and mail enabled security groups to O365, with a migration of email to EO to follow. (We already have user accounts synced via Azure AD Connect.) One gotcha, is that we have old email addresses (with unused domains) on these groups and I'm not sure if thats going to be a problem if I sync then before stripping those out. I was able to script removing those from the user accounts before we synced those, though doing it for the groups hasn't been successful so far. I went ahead and synced a couple of DG's to O365 just as a trial run, and when I view the groups in Exchange Admin Center / Groups/ Dist List, it shows the primary email email address and two of the alias addresses. Then it shows '+3 more'. I can't figure out how to view those '3 more' aliases. I'm wanting to see if those additional addresses are good addresses (with our domains that do exist in O365). If so, then I would seem that the sync leaves out the 'bad' addresses, if that makes sense. Thanks for any pointers!Solved513Views0likes2CommentsInterface Views in Microsoft 365 Admin Center

I have a client that has two different domains (old and new). Example: Old email: mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons new email mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons. It looks like their provider created alias's for the new domain. Problem is they still get email going to the old email that get's forwarded(?) to the new email. I want to migrate over to 365. I'm pretty sure the migration will work to transfer over their email history using the new email, but I'm not sure how the forwarding will work. Can I create alias's for the old email in 365 to do the same?278Views0likes1Comment
