changing users UID and email addresses

Hello all,

I have been asked to see what would be involved in changing users uid and email addresses. We have used a format of the first 4 letters of the last name and the first four letters of the last name for many years.

What would be the best way to say change the UID and email address to the users full name. I know I will also have to change the mail store because of the UID's.

Thanks,

Gary

Gary, for Messaging, the best thing to do is:

1. Temporarily change the e-mail address to a dummy. Put the user in "inactive".

2. Create a new uid, with the correct mail address.

3. Use imsbackup, mboxutil, or MoveUser to move the mails over.

It's harder for Calendar. . . .
