Because cmd.exe is stupid and so is outlook, you'll need to type that in.

You could try the following... including resetting the alias if that also has the #2. Depending on your address policies, you might only need to run: Set-Mailbox -Identity JSmith -alias JSmith If that doesn't do it, try: Set-Mailbox -Identity JSmith -alias JSmith -PrimarySmtpAddress jsm...@xyz.com<mailto:jsm...@xyz.com> Ian From: Heaton, Joseph@DFG [mailto:jhea...@dfg.ca.gov] Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 14:26 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Strange mail address issue Well, I'm sure Ian is brilliant, but that ends up not being the current issue. I know there was a Mail Contact for this user before they were migrated over. That Mail Contact may have even existed when the actual mailbox was created. But it's not there now, and I don't get response from the Get-Contact command. All that gives is an error saying the object can't be found.

It has to be the Contact. This user has just recently been migrated to Exchange and prior to that, someone had setup a Contact, pointing to his Groupwise account. Thanks a ton!

Running... Get-Mailbox -Identity *Jsmith* Get-Contact -Identity *Jsmith* ...might show you.

He's the only JSmith in my organization. However, looking in EMC at his mailbox settings, his default SMTP address is JSmith2. So, obviously, Exchange thinks there's another JSmith somewhere, but I can't see it. Anyone have a tip on discovering the other JSmith? --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
