This topic explains how to use the Exchange Management Shell to view the members of an address list.
You can view the members of an address list by using the Edit Address List wizard or the New Address List wizard in the Exchange Management Console (EMC). However, if you used the Shell to create the address list, you can't use the EMC to view the members of the list. Instead, you must use the Get-Recipient cmdlet in the Shell. For more information about how to view the members of an address list by using the EMC, see Configure Address List Properties.
