HOW TO: Export all email addresses from a domain

AD Users & Computers UI lets you list the mail column for each object, which displays the default (SMTP) email address for objects. You can export the list from ADUC as csv/txt. However, any additional email addresses in the proxyAddresses attribute are not exported.

There’s no GUI to list/export all email addresses. Here’s a script to do that – ListEmailAddresses.vbs.

File: ListEmailAddresses.zip

What does it exactly do?
– Queries Active Directory for Contacts & Groups
– Lists their email addresses
– Queries Users
– Lists enabled users’ email addresses
– Lists disabled users’ email addresses separately
– Outputs to command line and also to a text file – c:proxyaddresses.txt
– X.400 addresses are ignored

Microsoft SenderID===========================

Add an SPF record to DNS and then email senderid@microsoft.com telling them that it’s done, including the IP address and hostname in the message. It will take some back and forth, but you should then be able to send to Hotmail users again – this process may take as long as a week.
