Distribution Group customization

I want to create a rule on the distribution group, where by when the MD sends an email to that DL, users receive the email starting with Dear <MemberName of the DL) e.g. If Jack and Mary are members of a DL Finance, each receives and email start with:
Dear Jack and Mary receives the same email starting with Dear Mary. However, the email Jack receives Mary is BCC, same apples for Mary

Hi KimaniBob,
Based on my knowledge, Exchange has no built-in function to rewrite the messages body when sending messages to a distribution group.
Thanks for your understanding.

  • One shared mailbox with multiple distribution groups connected and the sent items folder - how to configure?

    Hi!
    I have been struggling for a while now with the following issue.
    For starters:
    We are using exchange 2010 in combination with outlook 2013 on client computers.
    Cause of the limitations concerning the number of mailboxes in outlook im looking for a solution to receive and reply 
    to multiple aliasses. So i did the following:
    1. Configured one shared mailbox.
    2. Configured multiple distribution groups
    3.  made the shared mailbox a member of the distribution groups
    4. Configured full access and send as permissions for myself on the shared mailbox ( testing )
    5. Gave send as permissions to the shared mailbox in Active directory. 
    6.  Logged in to OWA to setup rules for the shared mailbox.
    I now receive emails from all connected distribution groups in the shared mailbox and also in the right folder.
    I do however have to select the proper from address when i reply to an email. 
    the email sent by the main SMTP of the shared mailbox is placed into the sent folder of the shared mailbox. 
    I setup the senddelagate blabla in register.....
    When i sent an email as one of the connected distribution groups it fails to put the sent item in the sent items folder of the shared mailbox. The email is sent using the proper address but placed in the sent folder of my main account. 
    I want this emails to end up in the sent items folder of the shared mailbox. Or even better, in a sent items folder for each of the addresses. 
    Any suggestions ? 
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    As what
    Rajkumar says, sending as a shared mailbox(full access permission) will put the email in the sent item of shared mailbox. But it cannot be located in the “sent item” of a distribution group. Because
    it is a distribution group instead of a enabled user mailbox.
    According to your further description, I understand that the reason why you configure that is some users reached the
    limitation about the number of Exchange accounts you can include in the same Outlook profile. Is it rights? If I misunderstand, please point it out.
    By default, user can only add 10 Exchange accounts to the same profile. You can customize the limit to the number Exchange accounts in the same profile using the following registry data:
    Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\policies\Microsoft\exchange
    DWORD: MaxNumExchange
    Value: integer value starting at 1 (default = 10 if DWORD is missing)

  • Distribution group not showing up in Exchange 2007 GAL

    Hello,
    We have AD running on a 2003 R2 SP2 server
    We have Exchange 2007 running on a 2003 R2 SP2 server on the same domain.
    I put a distribution group (all staff) on the active directory server.    I can e-mail to [email protected] and it goes to everyone I put in that group no problem.   However if I do check name, allstaff isn't listed, I have to go to contacts and drop down to find that distribution group (under groups).   How do I get it into the global address list so it shows for anyone pressing alt K or checkname along with other members of our domain - I don't want them to have to drop down under the contacts item in outlook to go to groups to find it.
    Thanks

    Thanks - I don't think the regen of the address book is really the key but modifying the distribution group in AD after you create it in EMC.   I had regened the OAB a few times since last friday but the allstaff was only available under groups in outlook.   Maintenance runs every morning at 5AM and that didn't update the group into lookup in outlook.   It seems to be the broken AD interface between exchange 2007 and windows 2003.   You used to be able to see all exchange data for a user or group in AD however now part of it is in Exchange 2007 Management console and some is in AD users and computers.  
    THis is just one more item in my opinion along with the lack of gui control in exchange 2007 that displays the half baked creation that is Exchange 2007.   Is the next version of WIndows Server going to require all DOS commands like Exchange 2007 does to do any AD work?   Gussy it up with a fancy name like "POWERSHELL" but it is just another way of saying DOS to me.   Pretty sure PCs became more popular with GUI interfaces.    I used to be an MS FAN (not the same as fanboy who thinks they can do no wrong) but things at MS have taken a SERIOUS turn down hill as of late
    Vista - incredibly bad performance - no such issue with WIndows 95, 98, 2000, XP - and then they claimed it was drivers, then it was third party apps such as AV or firewalls - 5 months later they finally admit as people set up boxes with all the extras turned off with identical hardware and the latest drivers - hmm XP blows the doors off vista for file copy performance - can't imagine why sales suck for business clients and Dell had to start selling XP again.
    BTW - I tried their patch for performance - it actually decreased disk to disk performance on the same box while increasing performance by 20% in network copys however since network performance is up to 500% slower than XP that 20% increase doesn't really help enough to offset internal performance slow downs - here is a tip MS - strip out the DRM scanning and you'll get your performance back.
    Exchange 2007 - ESM worked great in 2003, 2000.   2007 we bring you POWERSHELL known 20 years ago as DOS.   Much easier to write scripts like - ## AutoDisco for EWS
    [array]$SCPCurrent = Get-ClientAccessServer
    $autodiscoResponse = "<Autodiscover xmlns=`"http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/outlook/requestschema/2006`">"
    `
    + " <Request>"`
    + " <EMailAddress>" + $siSIDToSearch.WindowsEmailAddress + "</EMailAddress>"`
    + " <AcceptableResponseSchema>http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/outlook/responseschema/2006a</AcceptableResponseSchema>"`
    + " </Request>"`
    + "</Autodiscover>"
    $strRootURI = $SCPCurrent[0].AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri.absoluteuri
    $WDRequest = [System.Net.WebRequest]::Create($strRootURI)
    $WDRequest.ContentType = "text/xml"
    $WDRequest.Headers.Add("Translate", "F")
    $WDRequest.Method = "Post"
    $WDRequest.UseDefaultCredentials = $True
    $bytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($autodiscoResponse)
    $WDRequest.ContentLength = $bytes.Length
    $RequestStream = $WDRequest.GetRequestStream()
    $RequestStream.Write($bytes, 0, $bytes.Length)
    $RequestStream.Close()
    $WDResponse = $WDRequest.GetResponse()
    $ResponseStream = $WDResponse.GetResponseStream()
    $ResponseXmlDoc = new-object System.Xml.XmlDocument
    $ResponseXmlDoc.Load($ResponseStream)
    $EWSNodes = @($ResponseXmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("ASUrl"))
    if ($EWSNodes.length -ne 0){
    $ewsURL = $EWSNodes[0].'#text'
    than just clickin in Exchange System Manager and going to mailbox management like you had to in 2003.   Whew glad that trudgery is gone!   In just 20 lines I can do what I was forced to do in a couple of mouse clicks in the old version - happy days are finally here.
    WM6 - the BT stack was horrible in PPC2003, WM5 it was still bad but we've made it intolerable in WM6 - and we've made sure you can't get in touch with anyone at MS to point out these issues.
    Office 2007 - Gone are all those customizable menus that made your job easy - we've locked them down because we didn't have enough time to fix them after we scrapped our original ribbons interface - we tell you they are locked for security reasons but we'll bring it back as a new feature in the next version of Office.
    Thanks for letting me dump on the *** coming from MS these days - if their surveys actually let you give open feedback it would be great but their surveys about products are more like -
    Would you like to give feedback about VIsta?
    Question 1 -
    Do you think Vista is
    a more colorful
    b more intuitive
    c more visually stimulating
    Question 2
    Do you think the menu bar
    a Has better icons
    b Has better fonts
    c Looks more user friendly
    A real question about my Vista experience would be
    Question 1
    What did you think was better about Vista
    Question 2
    What did you think needs fixing in Vista
    Question 3
    Any additional comments
    MS is determined not to let in any info that might delay releases or improve their products.

  • Cannot assign an email address to SharePoint group (distribution groups)

    Hello,
    I configured incoming email awhile back in our SharePoint 2010 environment and it works great. I can assign an email address to a list and the necessary contact is created in AD in the OU I configured for incoming email and of course the item emailed in
    is added to the list.  However, if I try to assign an email address to a SharePoint group to create a distribution group, the following happens:
    The following error has occurred while attempting to contact the Directory Management Service: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
    From what I've found on Technet and other resources, if incoming email works as expected, assign an email address to a group should work without issue but this obviously isn't the case.  I've dug around in the 14 hive and pretty much the same exact error
    is found there (with just a little more detail):
    System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
    at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall)
    at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters)
    at Microsoft.SharePoint.DirectorySoap.SPDirectoryManagementProxy.CreateDistributionGroup(String Alias, String Name, String Description, String ContactCN, RequestInfo Info, DistributionGroupFlags Flags)
    at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPGroup.CreateDMS(String dlAlias, String friendlyName, String description, String[] members, String requestor, String justification, Int32& jobId)
    Any ideas what this could be?  I'd imagine the timer service account has the appropriate permission on the OU as it can create objects for lists with incoming email enabled without issue.

    For the issue with group members who are not added during the creation process ...
    I followed this Technet article : Configure
    incoming email for a SharePoint 2013 farm
    But in the paragraph "Configure AD DS to be used with Directory Management Service", I added
    delegation of control for the following common tasks :
    Create, delete and manage groups
    Modify the membership of a group
    The distribution group gets created in AD with members in SharePoint 2013 ! It should work with 2010 as well…
    PS : Do not forget to set up these rights, not only for the Central Administration Application pool Identity account, but for all
    your Web Applications!

  • Effective Permissions to send email to distribution group having "only senders in the following list"

    Our environment is a mixed Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010 server environment, still in transition (after 4 years). Users have Exchange 2007 mailboxes. A recent problem has been reported in a distribution group access model that has been working without
    complaint for several years.
    [email protected] has member John Doe ([email protected]), Jane Doe ([email protected]), "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupA
    [email protected] has member Rob Smith ([email protected]), Diane Smith ([email protected]), "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupB
    [email protected] has members GroupA, GroupB, "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupC
    When designed, we thought that when [email protected] sends an email to [email protected] it would be resolved to the user members of GroupC and delivered to everyone ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]). (While
    it seems unlikely, that this model has functioned for several years without experiencing this problem, it is conceivable that until recently [email protected] and [email protected] have with few exceptions always had the same membership. Recent changes in
    our organizational model have caused this to have some exceptions, and may be the root cause of this problem.)
    What we are experiencing is that users [email protected] and [email protected] receive the original email. Users [email protected], [email protected] do not receive the email. [email protected] receives an email "Undeliverable: test
    Delivery has failed to these recipients or distribution lists:

    What is the expected behavior?
    Does Exchange resolve the "To" distribution group to member mailboxes for delivery purposes, or does it walk the subordinate child groups and check security at each level?
    Is this a configurable behavior that may have recently changed as we have a "new" Exchange Admin poking around?
    Might this be related to the mixed Exchange 2007 / 2010 environment?
    Is there a way to obtain "effective permissions" for delivery restrictions?
    emc2

    Hi,
    From your description, I would like to verify if you have done some changes for GroupB distribution group. Ensure that "[email protected]" is added to the "accept list" in GroupB's message delivery
    restrictions.
    What's more, are GroupA GroupB and GroupC Exchange 2010 distribution groups?

  • Dynamic Distribution Group set conditions by importing text file?

    Exchange 2010 SP2.
    I created a dynamic distribution group via the EMC.  We have populated AD with ExtenstionAttribute1 and ExtensionAttribute2.  I have created the ddg with custom attribute1 value = employee.  What I need to do now is  populate custom attribute
    2 = 00-0001, 00-0002, and so on.  There are about 300 of these numbers I need to add.  I have them in a text file or csv file.  Instead of adding them one by one in the EMC, is there a way to import them via powershell to the existing ddg? 
    The ddg is called All Management Employees.

    If they go from 00-0001 to 00-0300, you could just add them as follows:
    Set-DynamicDistributionGroup <group name> -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute1 -eq 'employee') -and (CustomAttribute2 -like '00-0*')"
    However, if you have additional items like this (such as 00-0350, etc), you may need to use the following:
    Set-DynamicDistributionGroup <group name> -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute1 -eq 'employee') -and ((CustomAttribute2 -like '00-00*') -or (CustomAttribute2 -like '00-01*') -or (CustomAttribute2 -like '00-02*') -or (CustomAttribute2 -eq '00-00300')"
    Now, if your numbering isn't sequential and it can't be, you would need to add them individually - which may make your search filter unusable, in which case, you may need to create several dynamic groups and add them to a parent group.

  • Tech Tip of the Week: Syncing Distribution Groups in Office 365

    Having trouble getting your distribution groups to sync when migrating to Office 365?
    We recently worked with a customer who had over 300 distribution groups that were not syncing to Office 365. Upon review, we noticed that the distribution groups did not have a Display Name.
    Here are the steps we took in order to resolve the problem:
    1. Open ADUC “Active Directory Users and Computers “On the top menu click on view and select Advanced Features.
    2. Find the Distribution List that is not syncing to your Office 365 tenant > right click the Distribution List > select Properties > click on the attribute editor tab.
    3. There are a couple attributes that must be filled out in order  for it to Synchronize to Office 365.
    Attributes: mail,
    displayName – if they do not have any data, fill it in. Once completed click ok.
    4. Open the MIISClient. This is located on your DIRSYNC Server. The default path is: “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Online Directory Sync\SYNCBUS\Synchronization Service\UIShell\miisclient.exe”
    5. Click on Metaverse Search > input the following:
    Attribute: Mail
    Operator: Contains
    Value: 
    “Email Address of the DG”
    6. Once filled in click on search > double click the search results > click on the connectors tab. Note: If
    you only see SourceAD Management Agent, perform the following:
    7. Click on Management Agents > Right click SourceAD > click on Run > click on Full Import Stage Only > click on ok.
    8. Right click SourceAD > click on run > click on Full Sync > click on ok.
    9. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Full Confirming Import Stage > click on ok.
    10. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Full Confirming Sync > click on ok.
    11. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Export > click on ok.

  • Using Multiple Object Types in a FIM Managed Criteria Distribution Group

    Is it possible to use multiple object types in a criteria based distribution group. So when building your criteria filter, "Select (object type) that match (all/any) of the following condiftions". Currently you can only choose 1 object type and
    I want to be able to choose object type "user" and a custom object type I create for my contacts 

    You can create main condition as "any" and later add two sub-conditions - one that object in set "All People" and other sub-condition that object in set "All Contacts" or "All Groups".

  • Looking for Script Exchange-2007: Import-Mailbox Calendar Folder on multiple mailboxes {Distribution Group}

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a PowerShell script which will import a Calendar events into student's mailbox (Calendar). Those students are located in a distribution group and I would like to target the distribution group; I'm trying to simulate what I want to achieve
    in the below code example, I would appreciate if anyone jump in and advise.
    $Users = Import-Csv C:\users.csv | ForEach-Object{Get-DistributionGroup -Identity SC-1213} | Import-Mailbox -Identity $Users -PSTFolderPath c:\Calendar.pst -IncludeFolders '\Calendar' -StartDate -EndDate
    Much appreciated..
    Hussain

    The logic doesn't work unless you are using StartDate and EndDate for the period when you change the item.  As I said above, StartDate and EndDate are not the times when the meeting starts and ends - they are the times that the item was either added
    or modified in the mailbox.  Your filter was trying to pull items that were in the future.
    And as I also said above, if you import a modified item, the original is
    not going to be updated.  You will have a duplicate meeting
    on the calendar.  You would have to remove the original
    and import the updated item if this was how you wished to manage the updates.  This is not nearly as effective as
    sending meeting requests and updating those meetings.
    For example, if we do things the way you are doing them, and we add a "Student Appreciation Bonfire" meeting to the calendar for April 12 at "The Quad", we would do the following:
    On February 1, you get information for the meeting that needs to be imported
    You create this new meeting in the PST calendar - "Student Appreciation Bonfire"; Date April 12, start 8:00 AM, end 12:00 noon; Location The Quad
    You import the PST into everyone's calendar
    You receive a note on March 12 saying the venue has changed to The River Beach, so you update this meeting in your PST
    Since there are other calendar items in the PST, you import the update using StartDate of March 12 and EndDate of March 13 - the date that you changed the item, not the date the item occurs
    At this point, all users have two meetings on their calendar - the original and the update
    If, instead of doing it this way, you create a Student Actvities Calendar mailbox, you would handle it this way:
    On February 1, you get information for the meeting that needs to be imported
    You create this new meeting in the Corporate calendar - "Student Appreciation Bonfire"; Date April 12, start 8:00 AM, end 12:00 noon; Location The Quad
    You invite everyone to the meeting
    You receive a note on March 12 saying the venue has changed to The River Beach, so you update this meeting in that calendar and send out the update
    At this point, all users have only the one meeting on their calendar - the update
    Using the PST as the source for the meetings would work only for items that
    will not be changed - holidays are a good example.

  • Cannot manage Distribution group membership when two exchange accounts are configured in outlook.

    Hi,
    I am using outlook 2013 and my exchange server is 2013 too.
    I have a distribution group named "[email protected]" and my user "[email protected]" is moderator of this DL and i was able to add/remove members from this.
    Now, I own one more exchange account as "[email protected]" and i configured the same in outlook 2013 as an exchange account and what i see is i am unable to edit the DL  "[email protected]"
    My default account in outlook is "[email protected]" still i cant edit the DL. As i delete the account "[email protected]" from outlook or configures it ([email protected]) as an IMAP i am able to moderate "[email protected]".
    Any Clue ??? 
    Error message :- "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object."
    My Exchange server 2013 and outlook both are having latest updates installed. Thanks.

    I have configured second account as Exchange only in the same Outlook profile. I don't want to switch my profiles to operate the either the accounts.
    Both the accounts are different and don't have any relevancy to each other. "[email protected]" and "[email protected]"
    What i suppose is, "[email protected]" is having permissions on the DL  "[email protected]"
    but "[email protected]" dosent have it. So when i edit "[email protected]" outlook is
    using "[email protected]" to edit it and not "[email protected]"

  • How to add Distribution Group email alias from CSV in office 365

    Hello Forum!
    Hope someone can help me troubleshoot this or even let me know if its not possible. But, I used powershell to import distribution groups and set primary emails in Office 365. That worked great, but we have two domains and i would like to add an email alias
    to all my DGs for the other domain.
    This was my best attempt and its not going well:
    Import-CSV "C:\distributionlists.csv" | foreach {Set-DistributionGroup "$_.Name" -EmailAddresses SMTP:$_.PrimarySmtpAddress,$SecondarySmtpAddress}
    $_.Name is the column name for my DGs. IE: DL-IT
    $_.PrimarySmtpAddress is the column name for my primary email. IE: [email protected]
    $_.SecondarySmtpAddress is the column name for my email alias. IE: [email protected]

    Hi,
    Based on my understanding, the below code should work when your manually run it:
    Set-DistributionGroup "DL-accounting"
    -EmailAddresses SMTP:<Primary Email>,<Alias Email>
    If all those distribution groups have been already created, then use set-distributiongroup command should work. How about first new those distribution group, and then run foreach block to do the loop.

  • Internal email delivery taking very long time (EMAIL WITH attachment sent to large distribution group)

    Hi Fellows
    I am facing an issue with Exchange 2010 SP3 (14.03.0123.003) environment. Internal email sent with attachment to an all employee or large-member distribution group chokes the queue on Hub Transport and takes from 7 to 15 minutes to deliver. during this
    time period users's emails are also delayed because of transport queue. I am trying to diagnose the root cause for this. Your suggessions and insight might be helpful for me to get it over quickly.
    2 x HT + CAS (WNLB)
    2 x MBX (DAG)
    UserBase: 5000+
    Regards.
    J.A

    Hi,
    Generally, a message that has a large attachment or many recipients takes longer for a Hub Transport server to process than a small message that's addressed to only one recipient.
    In Exchange 2010, after a message is received by the Hub Transport server, the message is added to the Submission queue. Messages move from the Submission queue through the categorizer. When the message is categorized, a recipient's e-mail
    address is resolved to an object in Active Directory. This query determines the mailbox associated with that e-mail address and which Mailbox server is hosting that mailbox.
    For more information about Internal message Routing, please refer to the following link.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232193(v=exchg.141).aspx
    In addition, Slow network bandwidth will effect email delivery. We can increase the network bandwidth to take a test. Low computer performance will also affect the delivery. If sending internal email without attachment to all employee or
    large-member distribution group, will they take the same long time to deliver?
    Best Regards.

    So it does list it, I have 2 domain controllers at the same site one is also hosting the exchange server (we are a small business). I created the distribution group directly on the exchange management console. I will force AD replication, but I have looked
    at the structure using ADSIedit and it does list it in the users section which is sort of why I am at a loss on this.  Thanks very much for your help, -Steve

  • Unable to edit Distribution Group membership via Outlook (works via ECP).

    SITUATION: I am attempting to enable the ability for specified users to edit the membership of Exchange 2010 distribution groups via Outlook 2010.  I have configured permissions via RBAC for them to be able to do this by following the instructions and
    running the script found here:
    http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2009/11/18/453251.aspx
    After running the script, users specified as group managers are able to edit group membership through the ECP.  But when they attempt to do so via Outlook, they receive the same message that they would see if the permission to edit group membership
    was not enabled:
    "Changes to the public group membership cannot be saved.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object."
    QUESTION:  Does anyone have any idea as to why we are still unable to edit group membership via Outlook, when all the permissions appear to be enabled doing so?

    Click Start

    , point to All Programs , point to Exchange Server 2010 , and then click
    Exchange Management Shell .
    At the command prompt, run the following cmdlet:
    New-RoleGroup DistributionGroupManagement -Roles "Distribution Groups"
    At the command prompt, run the following cmdlet:
    Add-RoleGroupMember DistributionGroupManagement -Member <var>UserName</var>
    Open Outlook and try to remove from your distribution list those members that you could not remove before
