Hi ITLOL,
According to your description,I have some doubts.
1.Do you use ADUC? The query is an attribute in AD ADUC.
2.Do you have errors? If you have errors,you could post to us.It will help us to solve your problems.
More details,you could refer to below articles:

Yes we do have ADUC and there are no error messages. I does not return any results, even though there are many users who are hidden from address list.

i used this query already and it does not work in my case.
(&(objectclass=user)(msExchHideFromAddressLists=TRUE))
May be I am not defining objectclass properly. We got maultipe OUs per sites and within parent OUs we have child OUs for users, groups and hardware.
