I'm trying to search Exchange 5.5 programmatically using wildcards to search
for a portion of a name or container. In the example code below, I'm trying
to enumerate all users with "user" somewhere in their container name. eg.
cn=TestUser1, cn=TestUser2 etc.
This code works fine using a wildcard at the end of the searchstring, but
not at the front, so "testuser*" works but "*user*" does not. It doesn't
give any errors, but it doesn't return any matches at all either, even
though they do exist...
I should note that querying Active Directory using the technique below works
correctly with the wildcards. This seems to be a bug with Exchange...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Set objRecordSet = objCommand.Execute
