Using a tool such as adfind or dsquery, you should be able to use the simple LDAP filter "(proxyAddresses=smtp:inter...@*)" and locate the relevant object.

It doesn't show in System Manager at all. Very odd. -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:kurt.b...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, December 03, 2009 5:57 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: 'Missing' public folder The folder most likely has the same name as its SMTP address. Assuming you have only one Administrative Group, if you open up the System Manager for Exchange, navigate to Administrative Groups/[admin group]/Folders/Public Folders, then you'll see the list of public folders. At that point, you can search for the PF by name in the right pane.
