BES 5. w/ Exchange - Two mailboxes??

[rmazzola]

I recently installed BES Express 5.0.1 and configured it (which it worked flawlessly btw, really impressed) as a soon-to-migrate from 4.6 (full version). Everything is running pretty well. However I had one problem when I migrated my phone that would be a PITA if it happened to the VPs when I transfer/migrate them over.

I did not use Blackberry transporter to do this however, I removed my own BES account from our 4.6, added it to the 5 server with ADirectory.

My contacts, appointments, and mailbox all got doubled up, and if I go into the Desktop mail folder, and go view folder, I see two of the exact same (mine) exchange mailboxes. It seems logical that since this doubled up that is why I have two of everything.

Can anyone think of a cause on the server side that may have done this? Or is it perhaps just the way I transferred it etc... and is there a way to delete one of the two exchange mailboxes on my phone?

is it new messages that get doubled up, or just the old ones that were already on the device? Odds are what happened since you just deleted the account on one server, and added it to the other, without wiping the phone (I'm assuming this), it left all the old information on the device (Mailbox, contacts, calendar, etc), and created a new one for the new server. The only way I know of to delete the old copies is to wipe the phone, but I'm sure there's another way someone else can probably tell you.

Correct, I didn't wipe the phone, so you are probably correct.
