RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Scripting changing of Exchange Admin Group for Contacts
Title: [ActiveDir] Increase ICMP packet size on a PIX - GPO related If I was looking at doing it I would have the contact send someone email, then change the ledn and then after a bit try to respond to it and see if it worked. If it does, you are probably ok with changing it. If not, I would probably throw the old ledn into proxyaddresses as an x500 address and change the ledn (if I really felt I needed to change it).

I am not 100% sure on what the impact would be changing the Legacy DN on Mail enabled Contact objects. Programmatically via a script itappears straight forward change "5.5LegacyDN"/object CN to "new 2K3 Admin Group Legacy DN"/object CN The main goal here is to get around a limitation that these contacts are getting a recipient policy applied to them that is a legacy of our 5.5 installation. We still have a couple of 5.5 servers that will not go away despite our best efforts, and as a result these contacts are getting stamped with our default smtp addresses by the recipient policy/RUS. Since the filter for the legacy policy is ((mailnickname=*)(exchangeLegacyDn=5.5LegacyDN)) They get caught, and there is no way to change that filter. I amPretty sure I have found a formula that will ensure I get Unique SMTP addresses for these contacts, so now All I have to do is populate the desired smtp:proxyaddress and uncheck the attribute that corresponds to Automatically update address based on Recipient policy on the ADUC Email addresses tab.
