Adding additional SMTP Proxy address

To save you some trouble, are these AD Users or are they AD Contacts?  You cannot have duplicate SMTP Address if they are Users, but you can if they are Contacts.  That is why I ask.

As far as the export, what version of Exchange are you using and in what language to you want the script?

Yes, these are AD users.  I have downloaded the Quest AD cmdlets, but never used or have not taught myself Quest AD cmdlets yet

Are you familiar with PowerShell in general?

yes I am.  I believe I had downloaded Quest Ad a few months ago.  attempting previous suggestion hopefully in the next hour

the quest ad cmdlets are pretty easy to use and have good help files. For a good reference you could do this

make a dir call c:\qad
get-command *qad* | %{get-help $_.name -full >c:\qad\$_.txt}

I ran the suggested cmd and it provided an out csv with over 43000 lines of results.  This is good, but it also provided all the smtp address for other address space

For example, I would like to pull all customer mailboxes that have a @mickey.com address.  I am not to concerned about the x500, x400, or any other address, just the customers with @mickey.com

Also the output file, if I could get it to have two or more columns, DisplayName, SMTP address, Primary address that would be easier to sort and verify possible duplication.  Thank you for all your assistance thus far, it is greatly appreciated

Try to replace the current foreach with this one.

Foreach($p in $user.Proxyaddresses){
If($p -match "@mickey.com"){
$out += "$($user.samaccountname),$($p),$($user.mail)"
}}

Are you saying to perform the following
$out = @()
$out += "name,Proxy"
$users = get-qaduser -sizelimit 0 -includedproperties proxyaddresses
    Foreach ($user in $users){
        Foreach($p in $user.Proxyaddresses){
        $out += "$($user.samaccountname),$($p)"
        }
    }
$out | out-file c:\users.csv
   
   
 $users = import-csv c:\users.csv
 foreach($user in $users){
 get-qaduser $user.name | add-qadproxyaddress $user.name $user.Proxy
 }
 
When would I place the new piece of script as listed below

Foreach($p in $user.Proxyaddresses){
If($p -match "@mickey.com"){
$out += "$($user.samaccountname),$($p),$($user.mail)"
}}

replace the current foreach loop like this

$out = @()
$out += "name,Proxy"
$users = get-qaduser -sizelimit 0 -includedproperties proxyaddresses
	Foreach($p in $user.Proxyaddresses){
		If($p -match "@mickey.com"){
		$out += "$($user.samaccountname),$($p),$($user.mail)"
	}}
$out | out-file c:\users.csv

Select allOpen in new window

Okay, I was able to pull the obtain the information and sort via the newly created csv file.  
You listed above to add the new address use the following;

$users = import-csv c:\users.csv
 foreach($user in $users){
 get-qaduser $user.name | add-qadproxyaddress $user.name $user.Proxy
 }

Where do I add in the new smtp:Fn.Ln@Disney.com.  Also, I just want to add this additional address, and not make it the Primary SMTP: address

importtet.csv has customers

Did you put the header fields in the CSV

NAME,PROXY

if you just do
import-csv c:\users.csv
you should get a list with the header fields.

You are correct, I do receive a list with the header fields, but I continue to receive the Cannot validate arugument on parameter identity

See what you get with this

$users = import-csv c:\scripts\doegov\importtest.csv
foreach($user in $users){
$user.name
}

The output you get, is that a valid user name?

try one of the outputs in place of USERNAME

get-qaduser USERNAME

 $user.name }

I can not tell from your output but it looks like it may be a single line, it should be 3 lines.

$users = import-csv c:\scripts\doegov\importtest.csv
foreach($user in $users){
$user.name}

It was one line, but I have made it three.   the script ran with no errors but no changes occurred

Yes, I am running the below on separte lines.  I am cutting and pasting the below into the Active Roles Mgmt Shell

$users = import-csv c:\scripts\doegov\importtest2.csv
 foreach($user in $users){
 get-qaduser $user.name | add-qadproxyaddress -Address $user.Proxy -type SMTP
 }

Can you test just one

get-qaduser USERNAME | add-qadproxyaddress -Address USERNAME@Disney.com -Type SMTP

[PS] C:\Documents and Settings\ess-faceya>get-qaduser kingac | add-qadproxyaddress -Address kingac@doe.gov -Type smtp

I do appreciate your patience and help on this matter

Does that account have a primary SMTP addresss set?

from the error it sounds like this account does not have one set.

Yes it has an primary SMTP address set.  

Some of my customers may have the following

smtp:   Fn.LN@Goofy.com
smtp:  alias@mickey.com
SMTP:  Fn.Ln@mickey.com    primary address


I want to add another address (Not Primary)

smtp:  Fn.Ln@Disney.com

Can you run this to see what output it gives you.

(get-qaduser kingac).proxyaddresses | %{$_}

[PS] C:\Documents and Settings\ess-faceya>(get-qaduser kingac).proxyaddresses | %{$_}

It is having problems with the x.500 address. If you go into that account is the x.500 address maked as the primary for x.500?

I only have one x500 address in the email address tab

And it is not Set as primary for the x500

unfortunately no.  all my customers have multiple smtp, and x400 and one x500 addresses

Can you test setting one as primary, then running the command again on a signle account?

Wow, amazingly I set the X500 address as primary and ran
get-qaduser kingac | add-qadproxyaddress -Address kingac@doe.gov -Type SMTP

and it worked

So yes doing it in a single user fashion will work, but I have over 10000 customers to add this additional address to.

let see if there is a way to set these to primary.

ZGood morning, I know I can add the additional SMTP addres via ADModify, but the problem is, I have over 10,000 in so many various OU's thus the reason, I pulled all the customers with certain smtp address @mickey.com and want to address each domain on an indivdual basis.  With ADModify, I would have to select OU's then manually sort and check each customer
