Active Directory's domain name appears to be fine.

We are in the process of migrating one of our clients off of their SBS2003 server to a exchange 2010 server and we are running into an issue with unsupported characters in the organizational name.<br />
<br />
I.E.<br />
<br />
Support-contoso_corp.local<wbr /><br />
<br />
This is preventing us from running the exchange prep so we can migrate the mailboxes to a new information store on the new Server. <br />
<br />
Does anyone out there have a way to bypass this issue? <br />
<br />
Thanks!!
