Hello Davide, Please try a slightly different format... Set-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity DistributionGroupName -RecipientContainer ‘domain.com/ouname’ In other words use the domain name followed by the OU name, instead of using the distinguished name. You will need to specify the path such as domain.com/parentOUname/OUname..... Regards

Hi Fraser, Thanks, I tried by same results , all the domain users are listed in preview, should be possible that preview is wrong but DL expansion should right? Thank you so mutch Davide

Hi Davide, I can appreciate you may like doing this via the exchange management shell however in this case I would open EMC > recipient configuration > distribution group > right click dynamic distribution list > properties > filter tab. From there you can browse and manually select the recipient container. On the properties of the distribution group you can also change the group name etc. If you find any of the options are greyed out using this method it is likely that the group was created in AD and so you should go there to make these amendments. Kind Regards

Yes, Rich is right. In Exchange 2007, when you try to check with EMS, you can refer to this document: How to View Members of a Dynamic Distribution Group http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232019(EXCHG.80).aspx Thanks, Evan Evan Liu TechNet Community Support

I'm trying to change a DynamicDistributionGroup like the following: Set-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity "TESTDDL" -RecipientContainer "OU=Users,OU=Milan,OU=Subsidiary,OU=Italy,DC=XXXX,DC=XXX" -RecipientFilter {LastName -notlike "Rossi" -and recipienttype -eq "UserMailbox"} DDL correctly changed without errors but it seems that the -recipientcontainer option is ignored, the DDL contain all the domain Usermailbox execpted the Rossi ones
