Chapter Summary

The creation of mailbox- and mail-enabled recipient objects is to a large extent the creation of user accounts, contacts, and groups. User accounts can be mailbox- or mail-enabled. Some thought should be given to what type of recipient object to create for mail-enabled resources, such as user accounts, contacts, or groups. Mail-enabled user accounts refer to persons in the organization that are working with a third-party messaging system. Contacts, in turn, are not users in the local enterprise and may work with Exchange 2000 or any other messaging system. Groups, to complete the list, provide a convenient way to address multiple recipients at one time. They can contain other groups, contacts, and user accounts. To avoid excessive Global Catalog replication, if the number of members in a group is large, create nested groups to subdivide the membership information. If possible, assign universal security groups e-mail addresses. Mail-enabled security groups can be used for permission assignments and to address e-mail messages.

The Recipient Update Service of Exchange 2000 Server assigns each recipient object several default e-mail addresses according to the settings defined in recipient policies. Objects without e-mail information are not displayed in the client address book, for instance. Therefore, if any domain in your environment does not host an Exchange 2000 server, you need to configure an update service object in Exchange System Manager manually. If you need to create or modify a large number of recipient objects, consider using LDIFDE or CSVDE.
