Q. What is DSACCESS ? A. which is responsible for system services that run from dynamic link libraries (files with extension .dll). Because it is used as a common system process, some spyware often uses a process name of "dsAccessService.exe" to disguise itself. By hiding under the fake name - “dsAccessService.exe”, spyware can damage more files and ruin your system gradually. this link helpful for you http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/dsaccessservice/431583/ Girish Bakshi | MCITP: 2007 | MCTS: 2010, MCITP: Server 2008 | E-Mail girish.bakshi84@gmail.com

Q. What are Recipient Policies? A. When you install Exchange for the first time, it determines the format of the SMTP address you'll want for your users based on your organization name and the DNS name of your domain. It places the result into an Active Directory object called a Recipient Policy This article helpful for you :- http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319201 Girish Bakshi | MCITP: 2007 | MCTS: 2010, MCITP: Server 2008 | E-Mail girish.bakshi84@gmail.com

Q. What is the “issue” with trying to remove email addresses added by recipient policies? How would you fix that?? A. I had defined a number of email addresses in my 'Default Policy' under Recipient Policies. Exchange did apply those email addresses to all users with mailboxes. However now I am trying to remove some of those addresses from the policy, and nothing seems to get it to update the user objects. All users have 'Automatically update e-mail addresses based on recipient policy' checked. I've updated and rebuilt the Recipient Update Services and have right-clicked on the policy and clicked 'Apply Now...' to no avail.
