new-account

Hello everybody,

In my SBS 08 (AD, exchange), is it possible to change the name, email address of a user because he is leaving and I'd like to transfer all the account and credential to the new employee that is replacing him.

Lot's of thing are set up for this user and it would save me lots of time if I can transfer an account like this.

Thanks for your help !
