PST Import Failure

[bparris]

I'm having issues getting the pst import wizard to work properly, it always fails ok the contacts complaining about empty fields. I have made sure that all of my contacts have at least a name, phone number, and email address. Any help would be appreciated.

Details:
Client: Outlook 2003 (11.5608.5606), exported entire mailbox
Server: Debian 3.1
Import Tool: ZCSImportWiz-3.0.1_M1_158.exe



Import Log:
-snip- initial problem solved, log no longer needed.

Thanks for the quick reply, where might I find the new version?

This newest version imports the contacts just fine, along with any messages sent from an outside source. However, any messages sent from another user on the exchange server imports with no from address.

this a known limitation. The addresses stored in the PST are not SMTP addresses (they are exchange addresses).

Where did the pst come from? If you have the data in an exchange mailbox, you should run the migration wizard which has access to an exchange address book and can convert exchange addresses to smtp addresses.

Is there a newer version of the other migration tool? I was unable to run it as the workstations are in a different domain than the exchange server, and the tool wouldn't let me choose anything outside of the workstation domain.

The migration tool needs to run under an account that has the correct privileges. If you aren't logged on as that user, you can use the 'runas' comman to run the migration wizard with the appropriate account.

The issue is that the systems are in completely different domains(which means no runas), and the migration tool will let me type in the "Location" to find objects in. Example, it will only let me select company.local and below, i need to use companymail.local. I'd rather not run the utility directly on the exchange server, as it is a production system.
