RE: [ActiveDir] Mail Run

[Brian Desmond]

Yeah I know there’s separate attributes…This client currently has in the GAL: First, Middle, Last, Email Address. Anything else is added value.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Al Mulnick Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 1:45 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Mail Run   there's a separate field for zip (postalcode IIRC), city, state etc. Everything else goes into that mutli-valued field. Sometimes I'll also put mail stop in the office attribute, but that seems out of place a lot of times.  Depends on the company and how they prefer to see it written out, but it seems a natural fit for the streetAddress field.

I'll have to tweak the flow rul in MIIS.   Do you usually do the whole address or just the street address?   e.g.   100 S Wacker   Or   100 S Wacker Chicago, IL 60606   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ] On Behalf Of Al Mulnick Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 11:38 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Mail Run   I've been a fan of putting it in the streetAddress attribute in past implementations.  That puts the information in the same nice neat box as the rest of the address information.   Best method I've had is to open Outlook, look at the GAL properties for a user, and decide where it should fit based on what's available.  Sure, you could modify the display, but that's a PITA in my experience.  If you can use what's there, it makes it easier when upgrades occur etc as you wouldn't have to worry about that being overwritten and so forth. Not that it is, but rather you wouldn't have to be concerned about it which is far more important. Once you figure out which one you want, modify it in a test case, rebuild the GAL and view again. Repeat until you have it the way you want it and then deploy directory wide.   Al   On 7/25/06, Brian Desmond <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Yeah I think so – when they say your on mail run 33 you're in a group of facilities who are all ser ved by thte same truck I think.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] On Behalf Of Al Mulnick Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 9:46 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Mail Run   What's a mail run? Is that the same as a mail stop? On 7/24/06, Brian Desmond < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Does anybody have recommendations for what attribute to store a user's mail run in? I'm looking for something that shows up in the GAL but I'm drawing a blank.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132
