E-mail address strikethrough in Exchange 2007
We had a problem when our provisioning system would not update the “managed by” property for a distribution list. Further investigation showed that the distribution list’s e-mail address had a strike through like this: (Seen in the DL’s properties using EMC) email@company.com We could not add a new smtp address to the group nor delete the current address. We then opened ADSIedit to have a more in depth look. We then noticed that the SMTP address in proxyAddresses had a space before the @ in the SMTP address. We rectified that and the strikethrough disapeared. We made the changes and managed to provision the DL without any problems.

How to extract audio from a video
I’m starting a few pod casts and want to extract the audio from the videos to mp3. The whole idea is to give you the option to listen to an audio version of the pod cast (video cast) as not everyone wants to jam video files on their portable audio players. I’m using VLC media player to extract the audio from one of my previous tutorial videos to mp3. If you don’t have VLC media player then click on the link to visit their site and download, in my opinion, the best media player out there for Windows, Mac OS and Linux.

I have a multi tenant messaging system that needs to sync user information to Mimecast. We have setup an ADAM database to sync with Active Directory. In turn Mimecast syncs with the ADAM database to have up to date user details of which SMTP addresses are the most important as Mimecast has been setup to not allow mail from an e-mail sent from our system for an email address that it is not aware of. Problem: ADAM stopped syncing with Active directory because of the below errors found. 1. The error in the ADAM sync log 2.
