Hey Folks, You folks have been excellent about steering me in the right direction during this NT4.0/Ex5.5 --> AD2003/E2k3 migration. Everything has gone fairly smoothly and most of the kinks have been worked out of the system. However, I have one last question that I was wondering if anyone could/would help me with.
Yesterday, I figured out how to do an import of all the Contacts from a certain company...11,053 of them to be exact. They all look good in the AD, they're in the correct OU, and they're all formatted the way I want them. However, I've hit one little snag. In order for a customer to see that Contact in the GAL, I have to validate the e-mail address first. Is there a way to do a mass e-mail address validation, either as part of the import process or after I get them imported?? If I select them all and select the Exchange Tasks option, the Validate option doesn't come up...just the Delete Address option. Currently, I have to highlight one Contact, select "Exchange Tasks...", select "Validate E-mail Address", click Next twice and Finish once. There's no way I have time to do this for 11,000+ Contacts, one at a time. If anyone can help me with this, I would appreciate it. I have two more Contact list imports to go, both of which are twice this size.
