Bulk create and mail enable distribution lists

Does anyone know of a decent script to mass create and mail enable distribution lists? Either by excel or csv? Thank you.

Hi,
You can check the repository for pre-written scripts:
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter
If you can't find what you're looking for there, there should at least be something you can take to start writing your own.

Mail for Access Request to O365 SharePoint site not received if a mail-enabled Distribution Lists' email address is provided.

I have the Access Request feature enabled in my O365 SharePoint site. This functionality is working fine for a single Site Owner's Email-ID and he is receiving the mail in his Outlook with an option to Approve/Deny the request. But when I specify the Email-ID
of a Distribution List (which consists of all the site owners), the mail is not sent to their respective members although the corresponding request is listed under the Pending Requests in the Access Requests list in Site Settings. Why is this happening and
if this not possible, kindly suggest a workaround.

can you specify the DL name instead of the email?

Security enabled distribution list in SharePoint

Hi All
How can we create a security enabled distribution list in ShrePoint 2010?
Does it means creating a SharePoint group with an Email ID and assign a permission to that group OR creating an Account in AD?.
If we assign an Email ID to that group in SharePoint whether that account will be created in AD automatically
Any Help on this would be highly appreciated
Regards
Mahesh

I got the answer for that,Here it is,
There is a distribution list you can see and use in outlook, but when you search for the same list in SharePoint it doesn’t show up in the people picker.
Chances are that the distribution list is not security enabled. This would need to be done by your domain administrator. He would need to change the ‘Group Type’ of the list from ‘distribution’ to ‘security’. Once this is done your SharePoint administrator
would need to run a profile import so SharePoint can pick up the change immediately (alternatively you can let SharePoint automatically pick it up during its scheduled AD crawl

How to send mail to distribution list and another table list

Hi
I am facing a problem. I need to send mail to the user who is creating the SO/PO and a distribution list.
Problem is only one thing can be used at the same time. ie either Distribution list or list from internal table.
How can we use both in 1 function module. Like it should call the internal table and then the distribution list for sending the mail .

Varun

Provisioned user in exchange from OIM created as Mail Enabled User

Hi,
I have provisioned a user from OIM to exchange and the user is created as MAIL ENABLED RECEPIENT in the exchange instead of MAIL BOX ENABLED RECEPIENT .The difference between both is like the MAIL BOX ENABLED user will be having a seperate button(MAILBOX RIGHTS) in the exchange advanced tab and also he has exchange features tab.
Is there any field in OIM which differentiates both MAIL ENABLED and MAIL BOX Enabled user.
When i see the tabs of the MAIL ENABLED USER in the exchange i'm able to see just alias fields in one of the tabs but the MAIL BOX ENABLED user is having even the mail store field.
When i googled for the difference between MAIL BOX enabled and MAIL Enabled i could see like the user created directly with exchange is getting MAIL BOX enabled and any third party user or different domain user wont get this MAIL BOX enabled instead he will be MAIL ENABLED
I want the user to be MAIL BOX enabled when he is provisioned from OIM.
Please update if any one has come across this type of issue.

hi Rajiv,
thanks...
i have run the AD Organisation lookup Recon and have given the following parameters
Lookup Search Filter:     (|(objectclass=OrganizationalUnit)(objectclass=container))

Configuration Lookup:     Lookup.AD.Configuration
But still theres no value for Organisation Lookup in process form for provisioning the user. what could be the cause for the same?
Also i was testing if the connector is installed properly by using the testing utility. i used the following command to run it : . runADtest.sh 2
But i got the following error.

Exchange 2010 Mail Enabled Distribution Group Won't Receive from External Address

Let me pre-empt the usual first response: yes, I've unchecked "require that all senders are authenticated" on the Message delivery Restrictions properties of Message Delivery Restrictions. I cannot get a message from an external mail server to
send to an internal mail-enable distribution group. It's working internally. I've checked our ironport and the message is being sent to exchange (at least I think it is).
How can I troubleshoot this?!

Ironport is definitely sending this email to exchange. Please read:

By using Inspector, i found the way to create and insert a scrolldown list ; however the list has to be created from inserting each line at a time; what i am looking for is a way of creating a scrolldown large(30 to 100 lines) list.

By using inspector, i found a way to create and insert a scrolldown list (*) in a cell ; however it can only be done one line at a time .what i am looking for is to create a bigger scrolldown list ( from 30 to 100 lines ) and in excel we can do it by copy and paste from an other doc...there must be a way with Numbers !!! any ideas ?
(*)...go to inspector/4th icon to he left/format/local menu/and then input the list one by one...and it creates a scrolldown list where you cursor was located in numbers.
please help....

If you need to use this kind of objects, my guess is that it would be better to use an other application like libreOffice.
At an user request, I wrote an AppleScript grabbing the list from a table embedded in the Numbers document.
Here is an enhanced version.
--{code}
--[SCRIPT fake-scrolldown-list]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : fake-scrolldown-list.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications :Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Sélectionner une cellule dans une table d'un document Numbers.
Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “fake-scrolldown-list”
Le script extrait la liste d'articles de la table « la_liste » de la feuille contenant la table ci-dessus.
Il demande de choisir un article puis dépose celui-ci dans la cellule sélectionnée.
ATTENTION : À la demande d'un utilisateur, Le script utilise un nom de table localisé.
Je n'aime pas cela parce que de ce fait, lorsque le script est utilisé sur un système Français,
il requiert une table nommée "la_liste" mais lorsqu'il est utilisé sur un système Anglais il requiert la table "the_list".
--=====
L’aide du Finder explique:
L’Utilitaire AppleScript permet d’activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l’Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus”.
Sous 10.6.x,
aller dans le panneau “Général” du dialogue Préférences de l’Éditeur Applescript
puis cocher la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre des menus”.
--=====
Save the script as a Script: fake-scrolldown-list.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Select a cell in a table of a Numbers document.
Go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose “fake-scrolldown-list”
The script extract the list of allowed items from the table “the_list” which must sit in the same sheet that the table embedding the selected cell.
It urge to choose an item then insert it in the selected cell.
CAUTION : I use different names for the required table according to the language in use on user request.
I dislike this feature because a document built by a French user sent to an English one will fail.
On the French system the script ask for the table "la_liste" but it ask for the table "the_list" on an English system.
--=====
The Finder’s Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the “Show Script Menu in menu bar” checkbox.
Under 10.6.x,
go to the General panel of AppleScript Editor’s Preferences dialog box
and check the “Show Script menu in menu bar” option.

How to create a rule for distribution list

I have users in a distribution list that all require a specific rule to be created for them. I have been able to create a a rule to distribute in Exchange management shell which works properly but I have found out that the rule will not be visible to the
end user in the Outlook 2007 client. I was wondering if there is a solution to distribute a rule to these users without the need tot visit each of their computers while they are signed in (24-hour business but I.T. only works day shift). Any solution would
be appreciated.

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify that the rule you create in EMS is the transport rule. Users can't see the transport rules on Outlook side. They can see the Outlook rules on Outlook side. Your understanding will be appreciated.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Hi ,
Use Function Module 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'.
U need to pass Distribution list to Receiver and 'C' to receiver type refer the below code for clarification.
Determine the Distribution List.
        gv_rec_list-receiver = gv_distribution.
        gv_rec_list-rec_type = 'C'.
        APPEND gv_rec_list.
Check if Distribution List is deleted.

Can you just tell me whether it works fine.. And if it is correct how much time will it take to get email in my respective email address..
I have run this FM by just giving my mail id (not distribution list just giving doctype = 'RAW instead of DLI)
The FM ran sucessfully without any errors , But I didnot receive any mail in my mail Inbox..
Can you please help me how to sort it out getting mail in less time..
Points will be rewarded

Dynamic Mail Messenger - mail to distribution list

Hi Mentors,
The requirement is to generate an automatic mail when an employee updates his marital status or children status in IT0002.
The mail has to go to the master data administrator and one of the persons in the Accounts team to initiate insurance coverage.
M0001 is what will be used. The standard M0001 feature already has RECV1 (master data administrator) inculded. I need to add DISTR ( the distribution list containing the accounts personnel mail id).
How can I do this> Can you please guide ?
Thanks

hi VJ,
hope you are doing good.
Try using TCODE : SO04 -- > Distribution Lists --> Shared Distribution and then utilitze Attributes and Content tabs .
hope it helps you.

Use iCloud and Address Book Distribution List disappear. Why?

Prior to upgrading to Lion, I was able to edit my distribution lists in Address Book on my Mac; while I am not sure if the same worked after I upgraded to Lion, I'm fairly certain that the main change happened when I went to iCloud, which appears to have made significant changes to my Mac apps. I can no longer edit the distribution lists in Address Book and there does not appear to be a facility to edit the distribution lists in Apple Mail (the issue is with those in the distribution who have multiple email addresses).
Anyone got an answer for this?

Okay! Lesson learned! I need to search more deeply in the Discussions forums! The answer to my question found under https://discussions.apple.com/message/17129766#17129766

Send mail to distribution list using UTL_MAIL.SEND

Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
Does UTL_MAIL.SEND support sending mail to a distribution list?. The doc says, the recipient mail-id should be separated by a comma. The distribution list has mail-id separated by a comma. I executed a test case sending a mail to a distribution list, I did not receive any error or exception. I did not receive the test mail as well!!.
Has anyone used the UTL_MAIL.SEND to send mails to a distribution list?.
Thanks

Has anyone used the UTL_MAIL.SEND to send mails to a distribution list?.Oracle RDBMS does not know or care is email address is single recipient or list.
It sends message to name provided.
It is up to MTA to deliver any message it gets.
Are you 100% certain that message got to MTA & was successfully processed by it?

How to create and export a sharepoint list connection file to excel connection file library from power pivot?

Hi All,
I'm new to SharePoint and Power BI.
I've to use share point 2013 lists to create power view reports. For that, I need to create Power Pivot in Excel 2013.
I'm fine with the above. We normally take a data feed of a list and create connection to that. We need to create a connection file (.odc) and export it into a excel file connection library of Share point. The connection to be made to share point list. The
power pivot will be having multiple related lists.
How can I create a connection file which is referring to share point list
Please suggest.
Regards,
Julie

Hi All,
Finally, I could find the answer for this question after a long search.
First of all, open a new excel file in server.
Data-->From other connection-->From data connection wizard-->data feed-->Location of the data feed-->
http://sharepointsite/sitename/_vti_bin/ListData.svc
-->next-->select the lists which you need-->next-->only create connection-->properties--->export connection file
-->ok
The connection file has been created and .odc file exported to the specified location.
Open power pivot and check the connection in existing connections.
Exported file has to be uploaded in Excel file connection library of share point 2013. So that you can refer the same in this excel file when you upload it into share point.
Regards,
Julie
