Crap I knew the answer to this at one point... I must have reached the end of my event log and am now overwriting...
 
It is for the GUI but there is something else that looks at that and if it isn't populated it doesn't know to take that UPN Suffix into account.... I want to say it has something to with Forest Trusts but I could be way out in left field. Basically *something* looks at the possible UPN Suffixes and that is all that will be allowed for this or that. Sorry to be so vague but I can't recall what *it* is. If I recall I will come back and post but I did want to get something up here to say I had seen *something* at one point concerning this. Maybe Eric or Guido or Dean has something they can think of really quick...

Subject: [ActiveDir] Do I really need to add UPNs?

Using the GUI, I can add a new UPN by opening "AD Domains and Trusts", right clicking on the top item in the left pane and selecting properties. If I want to add it via script, I use Robbie's recipe 6.32.
 
But I can create all the users I want programmatically with any UPN I want without putting that UPN into the uPNSuffixes attribute.
 
Is the only purpose for this attribute to make it easier in ADU&C to pick a UPN value?
