Backup the DB. Delete the user account and restore it with ADRestore. Create a mailbox for the restored object. Use RSG to restore e-mails back to the recreated mailbox. Keep us posted.

I found the root cause..while deleted the current mailbox that intact to this AD User. I tried to migrate his mailbox again, result is still failed. When I review the log files, it appeared that this Mailbox Guid which going apply to this user already being
used by others user at target domain.
My question is why new moved mailbox has same mailboxGUID with existing one?

Hi Suriya25,
The mailbox globally unique identifier(GUID) is the most fundamental attribute of a Microsoft Exchange Server mailbox. The value of this attribute is set
in the database as the mailbox is created, and it remains the same for the lifetime of the mailbox.
For this issue please refer to this document(Preserving Mailbox GUID Values After a Database Move section):
