Exchange Distribution group

I recall that when I would reply to an email that was sent to a distribution group that I belonged too, it would not send a copy of the email to myself as well.  Does anyone happen to know what this feature was called and does anyone know why or how
to fix this?
Thank you!

I dont think it was called anything, but the only way to prevent that is to create a rule ( Outlook) that will delete the  messages sent to that DL in your inbox.

  • Using PowerShell to do a recursive lookup of members of a Exchange Distribution Group

    I am trying to get the members (DisplayName, PrimarySMTPAddress) of several Exchange distribution groups. Using Get-DistributionGroupMember gets me the first level of information, but in many cases there are nested distibution groups. How can I get the

  • Manage Exchange Distribution Group with Dirsync

    Hi,
    Our environment, installed DirSync and no on-premise Exchange in environment. In Office 365 portal, if I need to change Exchange distribution Group, it require to change on-premise AD.
    The question is if I want to update "ownership memeber" (not group memeber) and "membership approval" attribute, how can I do without EMC ?
    thanks

  • How to get Exchange Distribution Groups in Mail on iPad / iPad 2

    Hello...
    Maybe I'm missing something, but for some reason, the distribution groups I create for myself in Exchange 2010 ( personal mailbox ) are NOT showing in Mail on my iPad. Is there something that I need to do in order for them to sync?
    I appreciate any help someone can give!

    just start started using Exchange Online and also discovered this. Shared mailboxes and distribution group doesn't work on iOS devices and also OSX Mail.App, unfortunatly.

  • Exchange Distribution Groups not updating in Active Directory

    Hi all,
    I'm not sure if this is intended behaviour or not, but any distribution group we create in Exchange ECP does not update in Active Directory Users and Computers. Any particular reason why?
    For example, we have a user group called "Managers" and we've recently created a new group called Area Managers. We've since moved some people out of Managers and put them in Area Managers, however in Active Directory all we see is the Managers
    group with all the old managers in there. The OU for the Area Managers group has been set correctly.

    Hi,
    Please run the following command to confirm the members of two groups.
    Get-DistributionGroupMember -Identity Area Managers
    Get-DistributionGroupMember -Identity Managers
    I also suggest to remove the member from “Managers” in AD then check the members of “Managers” in EAC to check this problem.

  • VMO and message sent to exchange distribution group

    Unity Connection 8.6 with VMO 8.6.7
    So with the registry setting voicemailupload_play = 1  --- old VM's or emails with WAV attachments will play as a VM
    thru the phone but not light up the MWI.
    However, if I send a VM using VMO from Outlook to a distribution group on exchange...all the users receive the email (with the WAV)
    and VMO controls but they can't play it back via the phone (the requested voice message is no longer available)? Yet the WAV file is
    attached right to the message. Playback from VMO to computer works fine.
    Is there a way to easily have this playback through the phone given this scenario? Seems like VMO should be able to handle this.
    I'd love to have the MWI light up as well, but I'd settle for playback.

    Hi,
    We have a distribution group set up for external's to email a couple of internal's, however all the emails that have been sent to the group have not been going into the distribution group members inbox.
    I have looked at the exchange message tracking and can see a number of emails sent to the group.
    Is there a way to retrieve these emails so they can be sent to the groups members?
    Thanks.

  • Exchange distribution groups

    my company is currently using exchange 2010. I am currently attempting to create a distribution group for multiple employees who work in the same department, and need to collectively respond to emails sent to one mailbox. However, these employees don't
    need a personal email. How can I create a distribution group and add members without those members having a personal email account in the exchange server

    You don't need a distribution group - you need a mailbox that you grant all these users access to.  Technically, you can do this, but it's going to be tricky, and I've never done it myself.  Just thinking it through, you would:
    Create a security group for the team
    Create a shared mailbox for the team (New-Mailbox -Shared etc ...)
    Open the account properties in a tool like ADSIEdit
    Click the Security tab on the properties page and click the
    Advanced button
    Click the Add button, and add the group
    On the Permission Entry page, scroll down to the bottom and select Send as
    and Receive as
    That should give the team the rights they need in the mailbox.  To log into the mailbox in Outlook, they will do the following:
    Open Outlook
    On the Add Account screen, select Manually configure etc and click
    Next
    Select Microsoft Exchange etc and click Next
    They will need to type the server name and their mailbox name, then they can click
    Next
    If they get a logon dialog, they put in their own username and password, then click
    OK
    That should get them what they need.  I do not know if this is supported by Microsoft, though, so you may wish to hear from a Microsoft person for more information.

  • Hosted Exchange Distribution groups i am part of

    Hello,
    I have setup a Hosted Exchange environment, i am filtering on ExtensionAttribute1 between company's.
    Now when i create a Distribution group with ExtensionAttribute1 filled in this is still displayed when a users goes to OWA --> Options --> Groups When the user clicks on the butten to let him decide where to be a member of he will see all Distribution
    Groups there are, regarding what i set in ExtensionAttribute1, so i have to hide all my Distribution Groups.

    The only workaround is to remove the group option from OWA as the Address book Policies (ABP), that I assume you setup, don't effect that view. 
    ABP's don’t apply to the Get-Group cmdlets. Therefore, any user or process that is able to run Get-Group will see all members of any group
    they have access to.
    We recommend that you modify the group management settings of the OWA Options so users can’t use Outlook Web App to manage groups. To prevent users from using OWA Options to manage groups,
    exclude the users from the MyDistributionGroupMembership RBAC role. For details, see MyDistributionGroupMembership role.

  • Add exchange distribution groups to lync 2013

    Hi,
    Does anybody kows how to push directly exchange email distribtution list in to lync2013.  ( only selected list that contains country wise employee )
    Thanks & Regards,
    Bhautik Shah

    Hi,
    You can add Exchange email distribution list into Lync 2013 Contact Card as Tab of “Membership”.
    If Lync server have integration with Exchange server, you can change the value of TurnOffMemberOfTab to “0” with the following path:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\common\contactcard if you use Outlook 2010.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\15.0\common\contactcard if you use Outlook 2013.
    You can refer to the link below, it is for Lync server 2010 but similar for Lync server 2013:

    In the existing environment have two AD 2012 and two Exchange 2013. Recently deploy Lync 2013.
    Warning message is on Exchange Distribution Group.
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
    As Amit suggested, please check if the permission of the problematic distribution group is right. If everything is ok and the issue persists, please try to restart the Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service and check the result.
    Hope it helps.

  • 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]"

  • 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.

  • Exchange 2003/2010 Co-Existence - Distribution Group Management

    We're running both exchange 2010 and Exchange 2003.  I have an issue where some distribution groups were upgraded to Exchange 2010 (v14.0.100) and the manager of those lists who are on Exchange 2003 can no longer modify members, they get the error:
    "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object".
    We've already implemented the myDistributionGroupsManagement role with success to allow Exchange 2010 users to manage their own list without allowing them to create new ones.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2009/11/18/3408844.aspx
    Trying to apply the "Default Role Policy Assignement" to the exchange 2003 users returns an error.  Is there any way Exchange 2003 users can manage Exchange 2010 Distribution list they owned without being upgraded to Exchange 2010?  If not, is
    there any way to downgrade distribution group to Exchange 2003 once they've been upgraded?

    Hi,
    From my lab, legacy exchange user can manage the distribution group which has been  upgrade to Exchange 2010.
    Exchange 2010 sp2, Exchange 2003 with sp2.
    I can add/remove member for distribution group from address book via outlook.

  • Exchange 2010 Dynamic Distribution Group - RecipientContainer ignored

    Maybe someone will be able to help me with this...  I am trying to create DDGs for my organization but it seems the "RecipientContainer" is being ignored.  I have reorganized AD to include a top level OU called "Active Employees"
    and within that are sub-OUs for each department.  I also have a top level OU for "Disabled Accounts" and users in those OUs are ending up on my DDG.  Is this a known issue with Exchange 2010?
    First I had created the DDG in EMC and everything looked good.  I set the Recipient Container on the Filter tab by using the browse button and selecting mydomain.local\Active Employees, and then selected "Users with Exchange Mailboxes". 
    On the Conditions tab I left everything blank and when I clicked on Preview it returned the list of users I expected to see.  After sending a test email and receiving an NDR from an email contact (not on the preview list) I realized something was
    wrong.
    At this point I found out how to query the group members using the shell and saw that all users in the entire domain were being put into the group.  To resolve this I added a Condition for Company name and then tediously updated the field for each user
    in AD.  After querying the group from the shell again the results looked a little better - it was actually only pulling users with the correct "Company" in AD.  The problem is it still seems to be ignoring the RecipientContainer parameter
    and querying the entire domain instead of my Active Employees OU.
    I have reproduced the same results whether creating the DDG from EMC or from the Shell.  When I try to use the Set-DynamicDistributionGroup cmdlet to update the recipient container it warns me that the commad was successful but nothing has been modified. 
    This was supposed to be a simple solution for keeping our distribution groups up to date - maybe I should've known better...

    Hello Dave,
    Thanks for the post. Let me tell you how I was able to go ahead and resolve the issue in my lab.
    I had created a OU called Enabled users
    Then I created Two different Child Ou's : Disabledusersou1 and DisabledUsersou2
    So if I open the ADUC my OU would look something like this
    EnabledUsers
    Disbaledusersou1
              Disbaledusersou2
    Now I Had created users on all the above Ou's. When I created a Dynamicdistributiongroup with the recipientcontainer as EnabledUsers, it picked up users even from Disabledusersou1 and Disabledusersou2. Then I set the
    customattribute1 to test in the DynamicDistributiongroup.
    Then I went ahead and ran the following command
    Get-mailbox | {$_.Organizationalunit -like "domain.local\EnabledUsers"}
    The above command listed only the users from the enabledusers Ou. Now the next step was to go ahead and add the customattribute1 to test on the Users in the EnabledUsers OU. So I ran the following command
    Get-mailbox | {$_.Organizationalunit -like "domain.local\EnabledUsers"} | set-mailbox -customattribute1 test
    After I ran the above command. I waited for the AD replication. Once the Ad was replicated, I went ahead and did a Preview in the DynamicDistributiongroup and only found users from the EnabledUsers.
    I even confirmed by sending an email to the dynamicdistributiongroup with a delivery receipt. I got the receipt for all the users in the EnabledUsers OU.
    Waiting to hear from you
