I have successfully configured auditing for Account Management. However, it
does not generate an event for when an email address is
changed/deleted/modified?

Is there a way extend the attributes that are tracked within Account
Management in AD?

Thank you for any help that you may provide.

You would need to enable auditing of directory service access in Domain
Controller Security Policy and then enable auditing for what you want to
track as far as AD objects and properties much as the same way you would
audit a folder. If you look on the properties of an AD object and go to
security/advanced - auditing to audit access and you can configure the
object and properties permissions that you want to audit. Below is an
example of an event recorded when I changed the email address on the account
named George. --- Steve
