The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

When you run the migration utility in command line mode against a CSV file, using a control file to mandate what characteristics of the users are migrated and how, you find that the mail migration utility fails, with the following error message in the event log: 

   Event id 7032 Invalid Home Server definition in user list file for user
