No problem. I came up with the AD solutionn and was suddenly confronted with a few Exchange 5.5 customers. Therefore I already adopted this. You can export all E-Mail addresses with an Exchange 5.5 tool. Of course you need to extract the e-mails from a stupid ASCII format but it is not too hard. I do not have the scripts here at the moment. If you need them, mail me off list.

Basically you will use the ADMIN program in the exchange bin dir. Create an empty template e.g. export_all.csv:

Obj-Class,E-mail Addresses,Secondary-Proxy-Addresses

Then you need an options.ini:

[export]
basepoint=/o=yourbasepoint
exportobject=mailbox
informationlevel=full
subcontainers=Yes
Hiddenobjects=Yes

Then call 

./ADMIN /e export_all.csv /o options_.ini /n

And it will export all necessary mailbox-attributes into export_all.csv. Changing exportobject to dl will give you distribution lists.
