Exhange Online - Address list

Question

Hi all,

We have a hybrid AD infra on premise with online sync. Our mailboxes are on Exchange Online

I created a new "Test" address list in powershell on exchange online via New-addresslist: no problem

I checked with $malist = Get-AddressList -Identity "Test"; Get-Recipient -ResultSize unlimited -RecipientPreviewFilter $malist.RecipientFilter | select DisplayName,PrimarySmtpAddress,HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled: THE LIST CONTAINS THE CORRECT E-MAIL ADDRESSES, no problem

And yet by connecting to our tenant www.office.com. My Outlook online sees the "Test" address list but it is EMPTY

Could you help me please. Why does the Powershell command show me the list of GOOD users in "Test" and why do I not see them in my Outlook Online?



Thank you in advance for your help

Perhaps:

It could also be you need to wait a bit more

Answer 2

I already read this post but i checked the members of my address list are good in PowerShell. They just not appear in Outlook Online.

I'd prefer not to wait. i need to checked what i've done immediatly. do you think there is a powershell command to decrease the delay of waiting ?

Thx

Answer 5

Hi all,

I think i found the problem

1. create the address list with New-addressList cmdlet
2. Test the list with Get-Addresslist to see if you have the good users in it with PowerShell
3. WAIT UNTIL ALL THE USERS IN YOUR ADDRESS LIST CONNECT A LEAST ONE TIME TO THE TENANT
4. As soon as the users have been connected one time => the adress list you've created is no more empty. It contains all the users who connected at least once

Strange behavior but it works like that !
