SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to migrate users and messages from a Microsoft Mail for PC Networks postoffice by running the Migration Wizard (Mailmig.exe) from a command prompt, the migration may fail. This problem occurs when you use control files to specify a user list file. In addition, the following event may appear in the event log for each user you attempt to migrate: 
   Source: MSExchangeMig
   Event: 7034
   Type: Error
   Category: None
   Description: User <mailbox> not found in the postoffice <postoffice>.
where <mailbox> is the user's mailbox and <postoffice> is the MS Mail (PC) postoffice you are attempting to migrate from. After the migration is finished, no users or messages are migrated.
