I am looking for a Powershell script that will create the AD account and them mailbox enable that account based on a csv file. We have Windows 2003 domain and Exchange 2007 SP1. I know I have seen good examples, but cant seem to find them now. Can you help?

The new-mailbox cmdlet will do both. Here's a good example: http://exchangepedia.com/blog/2006/11/exchange-server-2007-bulk-creation-of.html

in addition to mike pfeiffer's response the set-user cmd can modify specific AD attributes that might not be able to be set via new-mailbox. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998221(EXCHG.80).aspx you could also go thru ldap to set up user, or thru the qad cmds (new-qaduser) if that plugin is installed, then add a mailbox with the enable-mailbox command.

This will get your users created by csv, maybe have the all the user values you want added to the account in the csv, ie: name, surname, givenName, sAMAccountName, UPN, etc.. Im not sure on how to create the mailbox in exchange 2003...sorry $csvFile = 'path to csv file' $objOU= "OU=Go,OU=Browns,DC=domain,DC=com" $class= "User" Import-Csv -Path $csvFile | ForEach-Object -Process { $stName = ($_.Name) $strCN= ("CN="+$stName) ## $strSurname = $_.SurName ## Assign the attributes to a variable, although could use just the $_.value in the put commands below. ## CREATE User $adsi= [ADSI]("LDAP://doaminController.domain.com/"+$objOU) $objUser= $adsi.Create($class,$strCN) $objUser.setInfo() ## SET User ATTRIBUTES $objU= [ADSI]("LDAP://doaminController.domain.com/"+$strCN+","+$objOU) $objU.put("attribute", "value") $objU.put("attribute", "value") $objU.put("attribute", "value") $objU.put("attribute", "value") $objU.put("attribute", "value") $objU.setInfo() ## Clear Variables $stName = $null;$strCN = $null,$objU=$null;$objUser =$null }

this might be of assistance http://www.codeguru.com/csharp/csharp/cs_internet/mail/article.php/c14009/ need exchange system manager on workstation or this shows how to do without. http://www.vistax64.com/powershell/85289-how-create-mailbox-exchange-2003-using-powershell.html I havent tested any of this.
