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.

EmailAddresses

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.ProxyAddressCollection

The EmailAddresses parameter specifies the e-mail addresses of the distribution group. All Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 e-mail address types are valid. You can specify multiple values for the EmailAddresses parameter. Separate multiple values by using commas.

Important:
Exchange 2007 does not validate custom addresses for proper formatting. You must ensure that the custom address you specify complies with the format requirements for that address type.

The ForceUpgrade parameter suppresses the following confirmation: "To save changes on object, the object must be upgraded to the current Exchange version. After upgrade, this object cannot be managed by a previous version of Exchange System Manager. Do you want to continue to upgrade and save the object?" This confirmation occurs when you upgrade a dynamic distribution group that was created in Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server. You cannot manage an Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2000 dynamic distribution group by using the Exchange Management Console until you update the object's version and change the recipient filter by using either the RecipientFilter,or the IncludedRecipients parameters.

GrantSendOnBehalfTo

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.MailboxOrMailUserIdParameter[]

The GrantSendOnBehalfTo parameter specifies a mailbox user who can send on behalf of this dynamic distribution group. The GrantSendOnBehalfTo parameter can take any of the following values:

Distinguished name (DN)
GUID
Name
Display name
Canonical name

By default, the GrantSendOnBehalfTo parameter is blank. This means that no other mailbox user has permission to send on behalf of this distribution group.

HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled

Optional

System.Boolean

The HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled parameter hides the distribution group from any Exchange address lists. Valid values are $true or $false. The default value is $false.

IgnoreDefaultScope

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The IgnoreDefaultScope parameter instructs the command to ignore the default recipient scope setting for the Exchange Management Shell and use the entire forest as the scope. This allows the command to access Active Directory objects that are not currently in the default scope. Using the IgnoreDefaultScope parameter introduces the following restrictions:

You cannot use the DomainController parameter. The command will use an appropriate global catalog server automatically.
You can only use the DN for the Identity parameter. Other forms of identification, such as alias or GUID, are not accepted.

IncludedRecipients

Optional

System.Nullable

The IncludedRecipients parameter filters the recipient types that are used to build the dynamic distribution group. The available values for the IncludedRecipients parameter are AllRecipients, MailboxUsers, Resources, MailContacts, and MailGroups.

The Instance parameter enables you to pass an entire object to the command to be processed. It is mainly used in scripts where an entire object must be passed to the command.

The Instance parameter cannot be used if the Identity parameter is specified.

ManagedBy

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.GeneralRecipientIdParameter

The ManagedBy parameter specifies the name of the mailbox user, mail-enabled group, or mail-enabled contact that appears in the Managed by tab of the Active Directory object. You can use any of the following values for this parameter:

Distinguished name (DN)

B (bytes)
KB (kilobytes)
MB (megabytes)
GB (gigabytes)
TB (terabytes)

Unqualified values are treated as bytes. Valid values are 0 through 2147482624 bytes.

By default, the MaxSendSize parameter is set to unlimited.

The PrimarySmtpAddress parameter specifies the primary return SMTP e-mail address for the distribution group. This parameter has meaning only if the distribution group has multiple SMTP e-mail addresses.

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 a value for RecipientContainer is not specified, the default search filter is the location of the dynamic distribution group in Active Directory.

RecipientFilter

Optional

System.String

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

IncludedRecipients
ConditionalCompany
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 in Exchange 2007 SP1 and SP2 .

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

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.SmtpAddress

The WindowsEmailAddress parameter specifies the value of the E-mail field of the Active Directory object.

Detailed Description

A dynamic distribution group queries the 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 a group. You can use Set-DynamicDistributionGroup to overwrite existing settings or to add new settings.

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

Exchange Recipient Administrator role
