This can be done very easily with VBS..
The email addresses are accessed like this:
dim proxies (1)
proxies (0) = "SMTP:<email address1>"
proxies (1) = "smtp:<email address2>"
oUser.PutEx 2,"ProxyAddresses", proxies
oUser.SetInfo
Note the capital SMTP, this denotes the default outbound (reply-to) address.
Just write the code around it to walk your OU structure and you're all set.

It is exchange 2000 on the server. I was trying to avoid having to
change everyone manually. The same exchange server handles all the
domains in question.
