Why the preview data via GUI is different from shell? [PS] C:\scripts>$NJ = Get-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity "NJOffice" [PS] C:\scripts>write-output $nj.recipientfilter (RecipientType -eq 'UserMailbox' -and -not(Name -like 'SystemMailbox{*') -and -not(Name -like 'CAS_{*') -and -not(Recip ientTypeDetailsValue -eq 'MailboxPlan') -and -not(RecipientTypeDetailsValue -eq 'DiscoveryMailbox') -and -not(Recipient TypeDetailsValue -eq 'ArbitrationMailbox')) Under GUI I have set Filter tab as Only Mailbox (with recipient container selected for a specific OU) and under conditions if I do preview the data shown different from above. Please help.

Hi Mr.Kris, It is expected. There is other propertity of the ddg called recipientcontainer to limit the scope. And the recipientfilter just meet the recipient types in the filter. Regards!

Throws an error: Cannot validate argument on parameter 'Filter'. But here's what I changed it to: $a= Get-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity ddg Get-Recipient -filter $a.recipientfilter -OrganizationalUnit OUname | Select DisplayName, PrimarySmtpAddress
