SYMPTOMS
The Management Agent (MA) logs record the following error message:

SKIP UNKNOWN LINE:

In addition, there is a duplication of the attributes mail, rfc822MailBox, and textEncodedOraddress, in the import file: -LDAPOBJECT: CN -dn: CN=peterlee,cn=Recipients,ou=PSS,o=Microsoft -cn: Lee, Peter -co: Canada -Company: Microsoft -department: Support -distinguishedName: cn=peterlee,cn=Recipients,ou=PSS,o=Microsoft -facsimileTelephoneNumber: 1-905-555-1212 -givenName: Peter -l: Mississauga -mail: petelee@microsoft.com -mail: petelee@microsoft.com -otherMailbox: -MAPI-Recipient: FALSE -mobile: 1-905 -modifyTimestamp: 20010206063850Z -objectClass: Remote-Address person Top -physicalDeliveryOfficeName: Microsoft Canada -postalAddress: 320 Matheson Blvd. Mississauga, Ontario -postalCode: L5R 2R1 -rdn: peterlee -rfc822Mailbox: petelee@microsoft.com -rfc822Mailbox: petelee@microsoft.com -sn: Lee -st: Matheson Blvd. -telephoneNumber: 1-905-568-0434 -textEncodedORaddress: c=CA;a= ;p=Microsoft;o=support;s=lee;g=peter; -textEncodedORaddress: c=CA;a= ;p=Microsoft;o=support;s=lee;g=peter; -uid: peterlee



CAUSE
This behavior occurs if you have added the proxy-addresses, mail, rfc822Mailbox, and textEncodedORAddress attributes to the Attributes to Discovery list. The Exchange MA is configured to request proxy addresses in the Attributes to Discover list by default. When the MA requests proxy addresses, Exchange returns all four of these attributes: proxy-addresses, mail, rfc822Mailbox, and textEncodedORAddress.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, remove the attributes mail, rfc822Mailbox, and textEncodedORAddress, from the Attributes to Discover list in MA:
 * 1) Click Configure MA on the Action panel.
 * 2) On the Connected Directory Specifics tab, click the Attributes to Discover tab.
 * 3) On the Attributes to discover dialog box, click Mail in the list box, and then click Delete.
 * 4) Repeat these same steps for each remaining attribute.
 * 5) Click OK to save your changes.
