Exchange 2007 Custom Alias

Hi,

I'd like to add a custom alias to all users on our EBS server (Exchange 2007).

We need the new email alias to be 1st letter of the firstname and 7 letters of the surname @domain.com

eg. Dane Gregerson - DGregers@domain.com

How can we do this through the Exchange Email Address Policy Manager

Any help will be greatly appretiated or we need to do 200 users manually :-/

Regards,
Dane

The policy I provided in my first link will give you what you are after:

"In the variable screen it will say %g.%s@domainname.com edit this to read %1g%7s@domainname.com"

When I initially tried this it didn't work for me that is why I posted here.

I ended up doing everything manually just to get it done asap. After doing this I tried your solution again and it worked :-/

Oh well.. at least the job is done.

Thanks
