That's also an excellent solution, with the -recurse parameter. If you care about preserving file attributes, permissions, etc., this may not be what you need. -----Original Message----- From: Katherine M.

That would be my solution as well. Another alternative is rsync, but I'm not sure whether it can preserve file attributes on NTFS file systems.

Hey Andrew, Thanks so much for your help and guidance on where to check. Kind Regards -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hodgson <andrew(a)hodgson.io> Sent: Sunday, 30 December 2018 11:37 PM To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: setting username format in Microsoft exchange? Hi, The best way to check this stuff out is to use the Outlook Autodiscover test tool - from within Outlook use ctrl key whilst right clicking on the Outlook item in the systray - it works with JFW systray explorer. When in there you can test different ways that Outlook does Autodiscover including HTTP/S for Exchange. However in summary you usually have to authenticate twice to the system if your machine is outside the domain or you use Office365, once to auth into the Autodiscover service itself and then you have to reply to an NTLM challenge prompt to auth into Exchange RPC. Its been ages since I did this stuff but seem to remember this part as its not the best to get it right.

This is done automatically if you created your AD domain with the same domain as your email address, i.e, company.com, but if you used company.local you need to go through the steps of adding company.com as a trusted UPN in Active Directory and setting the users to use it.
