Hi Norbert, Change the recipient scope to child domain and check. Recipient Configuration > Recipient Scope http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124527(EXCHG.80).aspx

Dear customer: Thanks for Amits reply. To move mailboxes, you can use either the Move Mailbox wizard or the Move-Mailbox cmdlet. You cannot use the Move Mailbox wizard to move mailboxes across forests. To move a mailbox from one forest to another, you must use the Move-Mailbox cmdlet. For more information about How to Move a Mailbox Within a Single Forest, you can refer to the following article: How to Move a Mailbox Within a Single Forest http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997961(EXCHG.80).aspx Hope it helps.

Hello I noticed that the scope can be change into the "Find" Window, but not in the Recipient List where all the Mailboxes are located. Is there a way to archive this? Thanks Norbert

Of course Amit. When I open the EMC all User Mailboxes from the root Domainwhere listed on Recipients | Mailboxes. But, I would like to see also the Mailboxes of the other Domains (same forest). In "find", there is the "Scope" Option which does work fine. But in the view in "Recipients | Mailboxes", i did not find a solution like that. thanks Norbert

Hello Norbert, I am able to see same result which I see in Recipients Configuration when I select the forest level scope and in Recipients Configuration -> Mailboxes. I think forest level scope selected on Recipient Configuration applies on all sub-categories also (Mailboxes, Distribution Group, Mail Contact & Disconnected Mailboxes) You may need to Modify the maximum number of recipient to display when you click on Recipients Configuration -> Mailboxes.
