I have over 200 users on my NT 4 server and anticipating 600 more. What I need to do is create thei mailboxes in Exchange 5.5 without doing manually one after the other. The problem however is that the users register on a daily basis. I import theaccounts from a CSV file but I am not able to do that in exchange. Is it possible and if so how. Thanks in advance

You can, by doing a directory export - pay careful attention to MS Knowledgebase articles Q155414, Q160184, - using Tools, Directory Export/Import in the Exchange Administrator, and using exported data as a template for creating mailboxes associated with the users that you're creating with your CSV. You'll have to use HEADER.EXE to ensure that all the attributes of the mailboxes are exported so you can make an effective template.

Hope this helps.
