Subject:        Email Migration Tips and Tricks
Presenter:      Ski Kacoroski

This talk covers the lessons learned while migrating 2500 users to a new 
email server for the Northshore School District (NSD). Email server 
migration consists of data and process inventory and clean up, selecting 
the new email server, initial data migration, running a pilot test, 
final data migration, and post migration tasks. This presentation will 
cover these aspects, what worked and did not work, and what should have 
been done differently to make the migration run smoother using examples 
from migrating the email server at NSD.
