  5. (Optional) Add classes that you want Identity Manager to process.

    The Exchange driver supports the Distribution List, Remote, and Mailbox classes.

Mail-nickname is the Alias attribute on the General page in the Exchange Administrator. It is the Exchange attribute name that the driver supports, but it does not map to any existing Identity Vault attributes. Based on your organization's needs, you can map this Exchange attribute to existing or new Identity Vault attributes (after extending the schema) by modifying the Schema Mapping policy. Make sure that the syntax for any maps you add is valid. You can also handle this in a style sheet.
