Although Stellar Converter for EDB auto-maps source to destination mailboxes, it also provides a Create Mailbox option. This helps you create a new user mailbox on the destination Live Exchange server and then manually map the mailboxes to export the EDB mailboxes correctly.
Prerequisites
- Configure Outlook profile (destination Exchange) with Administrator rights on the system where Stellar Converter for EDB is installed.
- To create user mailboxes and export mailboxes on the destination server, the user must have full data access rights.
