import-mailbox not working
I'm trying to import PST files that were originally converted from lotus note .NSF files in ANSI format. For some reason whenever I run import-mailbox it says it runs successfully in about 2 seconds but the mailbox does not have any data in it. Anyone have any experience with this one?I tried running scanpst and repairing a few files first and no dice. I saw a post regarding problems pre SP1 Rollup 2. I am currently running SP1 Rolloup 8.Any assistance would be appreciated.

Check info: 1. Does the account that performed this action have right permission? If yes, please do not launch PowerShell under the Run As method with the account. Instead log into Windows as the desired account with permission to the mailbox and launch PowerShell normally 2. Where do you try to perform the Import-Mailbox cmdlet? To import data from a .PST file, you must run the Import-Mailbox cmdlet from a 32-bit computer that has the following installed: The 32-bit version of the Exchange management tools Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 or Outlook 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) 3. Please refer my answer in this thread to verify your Rollup version on the exchange server and client 4. Have you followed this article to perform the procedure? 5. Please run a small test: In current exchange 2007 environment, use Export-Mailbox to generate a PST file, and use Import-Mailbox cmdlet to put the PST back to the mailbox Notes: If this test is success, we can isolate the root cause to the PST file 6. Please add parameter -verbose at the end of the Import-Mailbox and reproduce the issue, which can give us more info to narrow down the cause 7. Please also check the report log for the issue, if you didnt specify the path in the Import-Mailbox cmdlet, the log file shall be in the X:Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Logging\MigrationLogs
