As simple as it seems, I'm not aware of a quick and easy way using the built-in AD (2003) or Exchange (2003) GUIs to search for which object has a particular e-mail address. If I wanted to find out which object (it could be a group, mailbox, or public folder) has the e-mail address techsupport@my-corp.com, I could find it by entering the address in Outlook and letting Outlook resolve it through the Global Address List. But if the object is hidden, it won't be in the GAL, so that wouldn't work. (more…)

This is intended to clarify, in summary, how Active Directory, X.500, LDAP, and Kerberos work with each other. (more…)
