Hi @Anusha

I haven't done much with Python and AD but I did help on another question which includes some details on using Python using a couple of different libraries.

Here on the other hand here is a Powershell script which can be used to valid the mail address for users active users. You just need to change the domain name.

get-aduser -filter 'enabled -eq $true' -properties givenname,sn,mail,samaccountname |   
    foreach-object{   
        [PSCustomObject]@{   
            Name = $_.SamAccountName;  
            Mail = $_.Mail  
            Valid = "$($_.givenname).$($_.sn)@yourmaildomain.com" -eq $_.mail;  
         }  
     } | Export-Csv c:\temp\mail-Report.csv -notypeinformation
