Right now I'm just looping through users that are mail enabled:
"<LDAP://"; & varDomainNC &
">;(&(&(objectClass=user))((mail=*)));adspath,cn;subtree"
I've found the way to write to it now. But I'm still trying to clean up
my script, for some reason I can't get it to read what is currently
there. I would like to read it, write and read it again for comparason
purpose before touching the live network at all.
I haven't decided exactly what to put in there right now. If I could
simply "unset" it that would be nice, but setting it to a null doesn't
seem to work, it doesn't get changed. Setting it to a blank (space)
corrupts it, so I may end up setting it to the root of our domain.

I can read this attribute via ADSI script.
However, when I try and write it via ADSI script it would only work for
my account when the script was run as admin. That may be because I have
more than one account sharing the same exchange mailbox, and perhaps
funny DACLs on some attributes - or maybe some more underlying reason.
However, given that you would almost certainly be running the script as
admin - probably because you've got to modify countless accounts, this
shouldn't be a problem.
What rationale are you using to select your users, and what value (ie is
it derivable from other user attributes) are you going to set this
attibute to?
