fact
Exchange Migrator 2.x

fix

You can merge migrated source account properties into new or existing target accounts. If you import mappings from Domain Migration Administrator before starting your migration, source account properties are merged into mapped target accounts. Migrated accounts that are not mapped to a target account use these specified options. The fields are defined as follows:

Create a new Windows 2000 account for the migrated mailbox

Specifies that you want Exchange Migrator to create a new Windows account in the target domain for each migrated mailbox.

Merge the account with a target account that has the same SamAccountName

Specifies that you want to merge migrated mailboxes into target Windows accounts that contain the same SamAccountName.

Merge the account with a target account that has the same SID History

Specifies that you want to merge migrated mailboxes into target Windows accounts that contain the same SID History. To use this option your target Exchange organization must be running on a Windows  native mode operating system.

Associate the existing account with the new Exchange mailbox

Specifies that you want Exchange Migrator to associate the source Windows account with a target Exchange 2000 mailbox. You may want to select this option if you have not yet migrated user accounts to Windows 2000.
