Hi Chris...
I don't see what the max display settings have to do with mailbox creation other than the admin not being able to see the accounts to create the mailboxes. Is there any more to this? I know I have created the accounts so of course I am going to have the Exch2K AD users & comps to display more than the number I have created. There is no need for me to use scripts to create the mailboxes, the UI works fine. So anyone else know the magic max. no. which can be created this way? Regards E. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Simultaneous mailbox creation.... Well, I think by default not all 80k users would be displayed ADUC, so at most it would be whatever the default subset limit is... :) Have you thought about just creating the users as mail enabled or mail enabling them via script instead of the UI? Perhaps the script at http://www.swinc.com/resource/scripts.htm might help.
