Detailed Description

A dynamic distribution group queries Active Directory directory service mail-enabled objects and builds the group membership based on the results. The group membership is recalculated whenever an e-mail message is sent to the group. The query filters provided with Exchange are limited to any combination of the following parameters:

  • ConditionalCompany

  • ConditionalCustomAttributeN (where N is a value from 1 through 15)

  • ConditionalDepartment

  • ConditionalStateOrProvince

  • IncludedRecipients

You can also create any custom query using the RecipientFilter parameter.

To run the New-DynamicDistributionGroup cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:

  • Exchange Recipient Administrator role

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

IncludedRecipients

Required

System.Nullable

The IncludedRecipients parameter filters the recipient types that are used to build the dynamic distribution group. The IncludedRecipients parameter cannot be used if the RecipientFilter parameter is specified.

The available values for the IncludedRecipients parameter are AllRecipients, MailboxUsers, Resources, MailContacts, MailGroups, Mail Users, and None.

AllRecipients can be used only by itself. When multiple values of IncludedRecipients are separated by commas, the OR Boolean operator is applied.

Name

Required

System.String

The Name parameter specifies the name of the dynamic distribution group. If the DisplayName parameter is not specified, the value of Name is also used for DisplayName.

The Name value cannot exceed 64 characters.

If the values of Name and DisplayName are different:

  • Name specifies the dynamic distribution group name in Active Directory Users and Computers and also in the Group Name field in the Exchange Management Console.

  • DisplayName specifies the dynamic distribution group name in the Exchange Management Console, and in the Exchange global address list (GAL).

RecipientFilter

Required

System.String

The RecipientFilter parameter filters the mail-enabled recipients that are used to build the dynamic distribution group. RecipientFilter cannot be used if any of the following parameters are specified:

  • IncludedRecipients

  • ConditionalCompany

  • ConditionalCustomAttributeN (where N is a value from 1 through 15)

  • ConditionalDepartment

  • ConditionalStateOrProvince

RecipientFilter uses OPath syntax to query Active Directory and filter recipients.

For more information about the filterable properties, see Filterable Properties for the -RecipientFilter parameter.

Alias

Optional

System.String

The Alias parameter specifies the alias of the dynamic distribution group. The value of Alias is used to generate the primary Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) e-mail address for the dynamic distribution group. The value of Alias cannot contain spaces.

When multiple values of ConditionalDepartment are separated by commas, the OR Boolean operator is applied.

ConditionalStateOrProvince

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.MultiValuedProperty

The ConditionalStateOrProvince parameter filters mailbox users or mail-enabled contacts that are used to build the dynamic distribution group. ConditionalStateOrProvince cannot be used if the RecipientFilter parameter is specified.

When multiple values of ConditionalStateOrProvince are separated by commas, the OR Boolean operator is applied.

Confirm

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The Confirm parameter causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You don't have to specify a value with the Confirm parameter.

DisplayName

Optional

System.String

The DisplayName parameter specifies the name of the dynamic distribution group in the Exchange Management Console and in the Exchange global address list (GAL). If the DisplayName parameter is not specified, the value of the Name parameter is used for DisplayName.

DomainController

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn

To specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to Active Directory, include the DomainController parameter.

The OrganizationalUnit parameter specifies where to create the dynamic distribution group in Active Directory by using canonical name syntax.

RecipientContainer

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.OrganizationalUnitIdParameter

The RecipientContainer parameter filters the recipients that are used to build the dynamic distribution group based on their location in Active Directory. The value of RecipientContainer can be the canonical name of an organizational unit (OU) or a domain. If you do not specify a value for RecipientContainer, the default search filter is the location of the dynamic distribution group in Active Directory. This location is specified by using the OrganizationalUnit parameter.

TemplateInstance

Optional

System.Management.Automation.PSObject

When an existing object is supplied to the TemplateInstance parameter, the command uses the configuration of that object to create a copy of the object.

UseRusServer

Optional

System.String

noteNote:
This parameter is available only in Exchange Server 2007 SP2.

The UseRusServer parameter instructs the command to use the specified Mailbox server on which the Address List service is running to obtain and then set mailbox and Active Directory user attributes.

The Address List service is a component in the Exchange System Attendant service. The Address List service creates and maintains Exchange-specific attribute values in Active Directory. You can use the Address List service to update recipient objects in a domain by using specific information, such as address list membership and e-mail addresses.

WhatIf

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The WhatIf parameter instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf parameter, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf parameter.

Example

The following code examples show how to use the New-DynamicDistributionGroup command.

The first example creates a new dynamic distribution group that is named Marketing Group in the Users container in the Contoso.com domain. The Marketing Group dynamic distribution group contains all mailbox users or mail-enabled contacts found anywhere in the Contoso.com domain who have a Department field that contains "Marketing" or "Sales".

The second example uses the RecipientFilter parameter to create a dynamic distribution group that is named Pacific Northwest in the Users container in the Contoso.com domain. The Pacific Northwest dynamic distribution group contains all mailbox users found anywhere in the Contoso.com domain who have a State/Province field that contains "Washington" or "Oregon".

New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "Marketing Group" -Alias "Marketing_Group" -IncludedRecipients "MailboxUsers,MailContacts" -OrganizationalUnit "Contoso.com/Users" -ConditionalDepartment "Marketing","Sales" -RecipientContainer "Contoso.com"
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "Pacific Northwest" -Alias "Pacific_Northwest" -OrganizationalUnit "Contoso.com/Users" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientType -eq 'UserMailbox') -and ((StateOrProvince -eq 'Washington' -or StateOrProvince -eq 'Oregon')))} -RecipientContainer "Contoso.com"
