  • Article

Some key points:

  • Users don’t have to be logged out of the mailbox during a mailbox move.
  • You should stop the ADC before doing a move mailbox in a mixed mode site or Routing Group.
  • You don’t have to stop the ADC for Cross-site moves however. This includes cross-site mixed mode as well.

Please read the above entry for more great information regarding Move Mailbox in general.
