I have a setup of Exchange 2003 with Outlook 2003 and Outlook Web access as
clients. We have around 2500 clients, which is setup through Active directory.

I need to change the “user logon name” found under “Account” tab in the
properties of each user to all small characters (at present first letter of
firstname and lastname are capital).

Is there a tool which can be used to achive this without having to change
each user’s properties manually??

Script comes to mind, using the movehere() method.  But I'm curious why
that's important?  Case-sensitivity is a little odd for this isn't it? Is
there a third-party involved?

Just as soon as I sent this, it occurs to me that you wouldn't need the
movehere() method.  It would look more like this:

Probably grab the attribute you want and convert to lowercase and then write
it back for each user object.
