From: TallPaul on
We've recently migrated from Exchange 2000 to a separate Exchange 2007
organization in another forest (we now have a resource forest model).

I'm now ready to remove Exchange 2000 from the user account forest, but I'm
curious as to exactly what the "removeorg" switch does, specifically if it
makes any changes to the Schema? From articles I've read it seems that
/removeorg just removes Exchange from the Configuration container of AD, is
this correct or will the schema also be modified?

We have applications which use the Ext Attributes attached to
mailbox-enabled accounts and I'm worried that these might be affected.

As I understand it, that operation removes the Exchange organization from
the Configuration naming context. It does not change the schema, as far as
I know.
