ADSIEDIT not working to hide accounts from address book
Hi There,
I have some user accounts in AD that DO NOT have exchange accounts associated with them. Some have in the past and some were created with out one. I am trying to hide them from the address book with ADSIEDIT and it doesnt seem to be working.
I set MSExchHideFromAddressLists = True and removed any values that might have been in proxyAddresses.
All users that have exchange accounts i was able to hide from the console, however everyone that doesnt have a mailbox seems to be still there...soooo frustrating.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Jen

Your Welcome! :)
Note: When you create a new user by using another one as a copy, don't choose one that has a mailbox because the new account will get some exchange attributes, like showInAddressBook for example.Martina Miskovic

Very interesting information Martina! I have a template with no e-mail.

Hi Jose,
If you have the same problem as Jen (seeing users without a mailbox in the GAL), do check your template account and make sure it hasn't got any exchange attribute set.Martina Miskovic
