Delete Proxy Addresses
Finally, there are no more Exchange 2003/2000 in our enviroment. I'm using to AdModify to remove X400,X500, CCmail and Microsoft Mail from users' addresses tab. However, i have dificullty to remove Microsoft Mail attribute. The MS format is CONTOSO/CONTOSOHQ/SANI When using ADMODIFY and at Custome tab, then insert SAPURA/SAPURAHQ/SANI and click remove, i'm able to delete the addresses. However i have 1000 records which need to modify, which MS format should i use. I tried MS:CONTOSO/CONTOSOHQ/%'mailNickname'% but failed Thank

I don't have a good idea how to deal with this without writing a PowerShell script, and messing with e-mail addresses in PowerShell is a little bit tricky.-- Ed Crowley MVP"There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems.".

I think I'd just use LDIFDE to export the proxyAddresses property ofeverything that has a MS address type and modify the resulting LDIFfile to remove the MS address from the proxyAddresses property(discarding the other addresses from the file). Import the alteredLDIF file and it'll remove the addresses.It may not be the most elegant wya of doing things, but I've used itbefore and it works pretty well.---Rich MatheisenMCSE+I, Exchange MVP--- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

Thank you fro your comment. I found solution which i think suit to my current task. To delete MS Mail with ADModify.net In custom tab: Attribute Name : proxyaddresses Attribute Value: CONTOSO/CONTOSOHQ//SANI The orginal format was CONTOSO/CONTOSOHQ/SANI, if you put this format in Attribute value, ADMODIFY unable to remove it. I googled and found that one comment where he enountered same error while putting the new attribute to user's account. Once he put double // then he able to put new attribute. So i tried to put double // as above and magically ADMOdify able to remove MS Mail attribute from Email addresses tab
