Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2
Microsoft Exchange 2003
All patched to the hilt
———————————————
I would like to automatically populate the “User Logon Name” and email address each time I create a new user.
It would be based on the users first and last name.
So if I create a new user named Joe Shmoe the end result would be a new user with the logon name:
user logon name: jshmoe
email address: jshmoe@domain.com
users home directory: \\fileserver\home\jshmoe
I know this can be done as I have seen it in production, however I can not remember the steps.
Will I need to create a template say, templateuser with %firstinitiallastname% or something similar?
What about for the email address? Is that built into the recipient policy? I believe Microsoft recommends creating a new recipient policy and never to delete the default.
This install is from scratch so any other helpful hints are greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time in advance!
