At work we are getting ready to create new user accounts for everyone and move their mailbox from the current AD account to the new account. The reason for this is a bit lengthy, but a big reason is people have been granted permissions based on their AD account rather than by group membership.

So I was asked to come up with a way to accomplish this.
