VB script to add alias e-mail to all users

My site is adding a new e-mail for all of my employees and I have to find a
way to add an alias to all mailboxes. Does anyone know of a script that I
can use to make this happen instead of having to go to each invididual user
and manually add them? I'm running E2K3 SP2 and W2K3 SP2 AD
TIA

Hi Paul,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need to add a mailbox for all the
employees using script. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free
to let me know.

Based on my research, there are many scripts available on the web. Here are
some of them:

Thank you for your vaulable assistance. Scripting does not sit well with me.
I reviewed the links you submitted and could not determine what to do. I
found another article that allows me to set up an E2K3 Policy that will do
the same thing. I am working on understanding scripting but have not grasped
it. I've read and performed easy scripting task but when it comes to knowing
what to do in the Active Directory world with the location of OU's and such
I get lost.

Hi Paul,

I'm not very specialized exchange programming, and this newsgroup is for
general vbscript programming. I suggest you try to post in

microsoft.public.exchange.development
microsoft.public.exchange.admin

There would be more professionals in those newsgroups to help you. I'm
sorry that I couldn't provide more detailed information.
