When adding new accounts in Active Directory (AD), the option to create an email address is enabled (i.e., checked).

If you are using Exchange 2007/2010 then you won't get the mail/email tabs and have to go into the Exchange Management Console to see them...
You need the Exchange Management Tools installed on that machine to see the tabs OR RDP onto the Exchange server and use ADUC on there
Heres the deal i can see the user in aduc. but the email address does not populate by it self. now if i manuel create the smtp address it will create the mail box. i have checked the pus its pointed to correct server. i have restarted server.
anything i am missing?
