This should just return the name of the manager of a user. 

Get-QADUser (Get-QADUser user).Manager | Select Name

Sorry, I was not clear - this gets the manager of the group, and what
I want is the manager of the employee. I've found an incantation that
returns the DN of the manager:

     'get-qadobject -displayname "kbuff" | select manager'

so I should be able to work out how to slice that up and return just
the name, or to clear the field, I think. I may come back for some
advice on that.

This is probably not about Exchange stuff, but I mentioned it just in case.
