Object: user ~ MS Exchange Attributes

Once the Active Directory schema is extended by Microsoft Exchange 2000 or 2003, the user attribute will contain the following additional properties:

homeMDB
Here is where you set the MailStore

legacyExchangeDN
Legacy distinguished name for creating Contacts. In the following example, Guy Thomas is a Contact in the first administrative group of GUYDOMAIN: /o=GUYDOMAIN/ou=first administrative group/cn=Recipients/cn=Guy Thomas

mail
An easy, but important attribute. A simple SMTP address is all that is required billyn@ourdom.com

mAPIRecipient
- FALSE Indicates that a contact is not a domain user.

mailNickname
Normally this is the same value as the sAMAccountName, but could be different if you wished. Needed for mail enabled contacts.

mDBUseDefaults
Another straightforward field, just the value to:True

msExchHomeServer
NameExchange needs to know which server to deliver the mail. Example: /o=YourOrg/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=MailSrv

proxyAddresses
As the name 'proxy' suggests, it is possible for one recipient to have more than one email address. Note the plural spelling of proxyAddresses.

targetAddress
SMTP:@ e-mail address. Note that SMTP is case sensitive. All capitals means the default address.

showInAddressBook
Displays the contact in the Global Address List.
