I've just migrated "successfully" from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010! I have a couple ghosts to clean up. In our Exchange 2003 environment we had a single mailbox set as "everyone's" delegate. (don't ask) I had one user that I had to use MFCMapi before migration to clear up (remove) a hidden instance of this delegate. Now that everyone is migrated to Ex10sp1, I've got one user that has that delegate, that I can't see. It isn't listed in Outlook 2007, it isn't listed in "Get-calendarprocessing" But when an apt is scheduled, the old delegate gets the appointment :( I've started looking in the mailbox using ExFolders, but I'm not finding any delegate either :( any ideas or suggestions, pointers ? Thank you! JLH JLH

Look in adsiedit for publicDelegates on the user account. Simon.Simon Butler, Exchange MVP Blog | Exchange Resources | In the UK? Hire Me.

You can do an ADSI query using something like LDP. Your query would be something like: (publicDelegates=CN=Potter\, Harry,OU=Students,DC=hogwarts,DC=edu) You might also want to look for alternate recipients: (altRecipient=CN=Potter\, Harry,OU=Students,DC=hogwarts,DC=edu) In both cases, the thing you're searching for is the distinguished name of the user who's the delegate or alternate recipient. This won't find delegates who simply have folder rights--that's a far more complicated effort that can't be accomplished by a simple query. And I just noticed that you want to do this in Exchange 2010 SP1. I was fixated on your mention of Exchange 2003. In the Exchange Management Shell you could enter: Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where {$_.ForwardingAddress -eq "hogwarts.edu/Students/Potter, Harry"} Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where {$_.GrantSendOnBehalfOfTo -eq "hogwarts.edu/Students/Potter, Harry"} This will take a long time to run if you have a large AD, but you only need to run it once, right?

Nope,not there. I was going to try to insert an entry & remove it, but I'm not sure of thy syntax, it won't take a username, or an email address. Does it need a "CN" entry or something else? Thank you! JLHJLH

Ed, That was a fun query, thank you. My domain has ~2k objects, so the query took ~ a minute. I didn't find my "hiding delegate" but I seem to have found some other mess. :( [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where {$_.GrantSendOnBehalfOfTo -eq "hogwarts.edu/Students/Information Technology/IT Calendar"} WARNING: The object hogwarts.edu/Students/Graphics/Graphics Scanner has been corrupted, and it's in an inconsistent state. The following validation errors happened: WARNING: Database is mandatory on UserMailbox. WARNING: Database is mandatory on UserMailbox. WARNING: The object hogwarts.edu/Users/Bob has been corrupted, and it's in an inconsistent state. The following validation errors happened: WARNING: Database is mandatory on UserMailbox. WARNING: Database is mandatory on UserMailbox. [PS] C:\Windows\system32> The user "Bob" and "Graphics Scanner" are "utility accounts" I have not migrated, but seem to have some other issue. I guess I start w/ MFCMapi on those 2 mailboxes since they appear to still be on Ex03, after further investigation on the Ex03 box, those mailboxes do not exist there. It's a new joy every day... Thank you JLH JLH

ADSIEdit was my clue... my “hack” of publicDelegates worked, (add someone, remove someone) got rid of the ghost! That worked.. Thank you All JLH
