SYMPTOMS
When you migrate a user from Microsoft Mail to Microsoft Exchange Server using the Exchange Migration wizard, and a custom recipient for the user being migrated already exists, the following event may be logged and the user's data may not be migrated properly:

  Event ID:      7026 Source:       MSExchangeMig Type:         Error Category:     None Description:  Migration Aborted due to Mapi logon failure.



CAUSE
When a user is migrated from Microsoft Mail to Exchange Server and a custom recipient is found with the same "MS" proxy address, that custom recipient is converted to an Exchange Server mailbox to preserve proxy addresses.

Through this code path, "MIGRATE" proxy is not created.

The "MIGRATE" proxy is used to find the mailbox when migrating the user's information (schedule information, e-mail, and so on).



RESOLUTION
The Exchange Migration wizard now searches for the "MS" proxy as well as the "MIGRATE" proxy to find the mailbox.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Exchange Server version5.5. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5.
