Hidden Items still show up in GAL
in [Microsoft Exchange]

From: Peter Venkman on 5 May 2010 15:33 Hi, We just migrated from Exchange 2003 to 2007 and have started noticing this issue. When we chose the option in a user's mailbox to "Hide from Exchange Address Lists", it will still show up in the GAL. It doesn't matter whether this is done through the new Exchange Management Console or through AD Users and Computers. It appears selected in both instances. It isn't just the OAB causing a problem either because checking through webmail shows the mailboxes still in the online GAL. Any ideas?

I will try that now. I tried the get-GlobalAddressList | Update- GlobalAddressList command earlier. They both appear to have errored out on the same 24 objects with the "{domain}/Microsoft Excange System Objects/{object name} is invalid and could not be updated" error, but we have many thousands of objects in our environment and non of them being listed is a hidden mailbox that is still showing up.
