In the on-premises Active Directory Users and Computers you can change the UPN suffix for those synced users. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2523192

Easiest: DirSyncConfigShell.psc1, Start-OnlineCoexistenceSync. http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-us/office365-enterprises/ff652557.aspx
I *know* people are saying, "I don't recommend ILM/MIISCLIENT.EXE" and they're right to ward novices off, because you really can break your sync/delete data if you're not paying attention. But on the other hand, if you look at what miisclient.exe *does*, you're going to be able to see a lot more troubleshooting options that may help advanced users take better control over what's synced, including syncing certain OUs, forcing a full sync (this can be dangerous, as it can mass delete lots of users, but maybe that might be what you want in a fresh install, especially if you synced your entire domain and only want certain OUs to be synced.)
miisclient is important to know for troubleshooting, and if you know what you're doing, it can be used to great benefit or it can cause great grief.
Disclaimer: I can't help you and fully disclaim all responsibility (Don't blame me) if you break something with miisclient, and Microsoft may not necessarily support your tinkering, either. Document any changes with screenshots before and after. IMO, it's no scarier a tool than ADSIEdit or regedit. Use with appropriate caution.

VIM join every other line
I've received a long list of changed passwords for Office365 and they are delivered via email in the format:
User Name: xxxx
Temporary Password: xxxx
in HTML.
It's not very useful, but I could copy this list into vim. Now, how do I combine the username and password into a single row?
250 times Jj is kinda bad. what else can I do?
:g/User/j
Yeah, that's about it.
I suppose I could substitute all spaces for commas
:%s/ /,/
Nice, but now I don't really need User Name:, and Temporary Password:,
:%s/User Name:,//
:%s/Temporary Password:,//
Is there a trailing comma? Let's get rid of it
:%s/,$//
I should be able to save this as a .csv now!
