[21/04/12 01:56:21 PM] [0] [ERROR] Error was found for John Doe (jdoe@contoso.com) because: Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. This mailbox exceeded the maximum number of corrupted items specified for this move mailbox operation., error code: -1056749110

What is the default BadItemLimit if nothing is used beside.

Zero in Exchange 2010. Probably the same in 2007, although I'm not 100% sure. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-NZ/exchange2010/thread/78d9f665-bdd7-4c8f-90bb-99d339a4f3cfPlease mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question.

Hi Sabresquad, As I know, both Exchange 2010 and 2007, the default badItemLimit is "0". Also you can refer to : http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ar/exchangesvradmin/thread/d82473eb-0a2b-4d47-a373-4e96dee67dbd Hope it helps.Rowen TechNet Community Support
