OST Recovery after Removing User Account and Changing Mailbox Domain

When you try to login to your mailbox on Exchange Server, you need to authenticate against a specific domain of Exchange Active Directory. You cannot access your .ost file unless you provide the required identify information, which proves that you are a valid user of the particular domain. For any reason, if you change the mailbox domain and also delete the user account information, the corresponding .ost file will become orphaned and of no use for Outlook. You cannot directly open the Offline folders with Outlook. To access the data, you must perform OST to PST recovery using third-party tools, in case if no valid backup is available.

For example, consider a scenario of a mailbox, for which the domain has been changed from 'A' to 'B'. The mailbox owner then creates a new account in this domain 'B'. When this user tries to access Exchange using the previous OST file, the sync operation fails. Additionally, the user cannot access the email messages of this .ost file.

Cause

Since the user mailbox has been moved, the user cannot authenticate to the domain 'B' . This is because of different login information. So, Exchange thinks that the user is not allowed to access the .ost file.

Solution

To overcome the existing issue, you should consider these suggestions:

1-Try to login to domain 'A' with related information and open the .ost file. Backup all its contents and import them to a new .pst file
2-If user account information is not available, you should restore these emails from backup
3-If the problem persists because the backup is too unavailable or exists in corrupt or incomplete state, you should use an efficient OST Recovery utility.
