Did you look for "Email address" or "Proxy Addresses"? And with proxy addresses, did you literally type the word "smtp:" into the search string? As in "smtp:jsmih*"?

You just need to go to the Advanced tab and then add Field/User/Proxy Addresses, Condition - Is Exactly, Value - "smtp:a*" (don't type the quotes) The example above will find all objects with SMTP address that starts with "a". Similarly looking for a proxy address that is exactly "smtp:jsmith*" will find all users whose smtp address starts with "jsmith". Also you don't have to use "Is Exactly" condition. "Starts with" will work too. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Hackney Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2004 4:34 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: email already exists query Thanks that's great - I knew there was some tool that could do it but it slipped my mind! -----Original Message----- From: Neil Hobson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 May 2004 09:03 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: email already exists query Try this: http://hellomate.typepad.com/exchange/2003/08/finding_smtp_ad.html -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Hackney Posted At: 10 May 2004 14:27 Posted To: Swynk Exchange (30 days) Conversation: email already exists query Subject: email already exists query I had a user who left the company some time ago. I deleted his account and added this email to a blackhole dist group. He has since returned to our company and when I went to set him up as a user again, I had the message that the email address already existed. (at this point I had forgotten about the blackhole group) I followed Q286792 and also Q280765 (searching the AD for the value) yet nothing came up. I did search on all items: Users/ groups/ contacts/ public folders. Why was the address not found as a proxy address on the blackhole group? Any ideas?
