exchange server 2003 find duplicate email address proxyaddresses

exchange-server-2003-find-duplicate-email-address-already-exists

find duplicate email addresses (e.g. you get the error "This email address already exists in this organization)

dsa.msc Right click on the domain object and choose FIND -> Custom Search Advanced -> LDAP Query

proxyaddresses=smtp:sales@domain.com //or proxyaddresses=smtp:sal*

(We use "proxyaddresses" because this is the AD attribute for a mail enabled object)

If you have the utility AFIND

adfind -root -f proxyaddresses=smtp:sales@domain.com

Or you can export the list of email addresses:

ldifde -f c:\addresses.txt -l proxyaddresses

csvde -f emailaddresses.csv -l proxyAddresses //case sensitive!

If you've ever used LDP.exe

after connecting, binding (authenticating) -> View Tree

Right click on the domain name and choose SEARCH (scope subtree)

proxyaddresses=smtp:sales@domain.com


If you've found the object you can move it by right clicking on it and choosing Move!
