SYMPTOMS
When you mail-enable a group in Active Directory Users and Computers and then replicate the change over the Active Directory Connector to a computer that is running Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5, you may find that the legacyExchangeDN attribute for the mail-enabled group appears as a nested double recipient container that is similar to the following:

/o=First Organization/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients/cn=Recipients

The legacyExchangeDN attribute for the group should appear similar to the following:

/o=First Organization/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients
