This step-by-step article describes how to create a mailbox for an existing user account.

You do not have to create an Exchange mailbox when you create a user account. If a user needs a mailbox, you can create the mailbox later.

Caution: In Exchange Server mixed-mode operations, you cannot move mailboxes from a server in one administrative group to a server in another administrative group.
