Default legacyExchangeDN?

Hi,

I have a small issue with a user account. This user got a divorce a number
of years ago and they changed her account in AD to reflect her maiden name.
Only problem is that when we look her up in Outlook 2003 we still see her
married name appended to her user name. I've been doing some digging and
posted a message in the Outlook group and it directed me to the
legacyExchangeDN property.

The response I received from the Outlook group was to either simply delete
her account and start over or to edit the account with adsiedit. But I was
warned about editing with adsiedit that it could "cause more problems than
it's worth if all necessary steps are not taken." So I'm wondering, is it
really that tricky? I've been looking at adsiedit and it looks pretty
straight forward to me. In brief, what are the problems I could run into
with this utility and how likely are they to happen?

I would like to remove this little annoyance however I don't want to crash
my Exchange server in the process.

Thanks in advance,
Linn
