GroupWise allows for spaces in the SMTP addresses of objects. Spaces are not allowed per SMTP address standards.
WORKAROUND 1
Typically, the SMTP address for GroupWise resources is derived from the object display name in ConsoleOne. If the GroupWise resource object is renamed in ConsoleOne to remove the spaces, then the CMG Directory Connector should create the contact in Exchange without spaces in the SMTP address.
