The number '2' is added to every alias

For some reason whenever I create a new AD user with an Exchange mailbox, the e-mail address includes the number '2' at the end. This has really messed up mailbox creations altogether.

Thoughts?
 
My limited knowledge advice would be to check the Default Recipient Policy as this defines how the SMTP address will be formatted. I could be way off but worth a try.

That would be my guess too. Have a check there and if you need to make a change, manually run the recipient update policy.
