Mount the db's, and then move the mailboxes using the 'move mailbox' option, of all things to plunk them all down on the separately configured exchange 2007 box. I know it takes a lot of hardware, but it just so happens we had that available for us. I actually used an ADSI script to go through and change all of the people's entries in the LDAP itself to remap the homeMDB, homeMTA, and msExchMailServer attributes to the NEW server (using a similar Replace() command as above.) I actually am not anywhere near that script, and I honestly don't feel like writing it over again. I believe in helping people, especially helping people learn, but not continuously doing things for people at my own expense ;) Haha. Good luck. If you want to do it the normal way do this

If you’d like to upgrade 2003 to 2007 in the process, restore your exhange 2003 db’s to a dummy server from whatever backup tool you have. Mount the db’s, and then move the mailboxes using the ‘move mailbox’ option, of all things to plunk them all down on the separately configured exchange 2007 box. I know it takes a lot of hardware, but it just so happens we had that available for us.
