    Hi GraXi.

    I don't know the specific answer to that offhand as I don't have Exchange
    integrated with my AD setup. Hopefully someone else can help and you may
    also want to post in one of the Exchange and Active Directory newsgroups. I
    found the link below but am not sure if it is the solution to your
    problem. --- Steve
