listing all e-mail addresses 2

[striker77]

Hi All,

Here's the scenario: I need to produce a list of all e-mail addresses in use on the server.

Right...so i could go through all of the mailboxes noting the addresses used for each and produce a list at the end. This would be ok in a very small environment but for a large network etc would seem highly unrealistc.

Therefore is there or does anyone know of an automated way of doing this? Does exchange have a tool to query the database or such like?

Any other advice would be appreciated. (in relation to the topic obviously!).....

thanks

dave

Option 1:
View the GAL in Admin, click on the View menu, Columns..., add the Internet address to the view. On the File menu select the Save Window Contents option, this will save the right-hand-pane as a CSV file.

Option 2:
You can directory export (from Admin, or via a command prompt ot schedulable AT command) the 'E-mail Addresses' field, which is a multivalued field containing all primary email proxy addresses, and either extract the SMTP address from this field by splitting the field in Excel (Text to Columns option on Tools menu) or Notepad (search and replace on '%'), or by writing a small perl (or similar) script to do it for you.

Zbnet, the 'Save Window Contents' is greyed out after following the instructions you provided above. Do you know how I can re-enable that option?

You have to click in the right-hand pane for the option to be ungrayed.
