I got an NDR saying there is ambiguous SMTP address in E2k7 org with 10,000 mailbox and DL.If you want to use Powershell, try this: get-distributiongroup -anr your_address_to_find_goes_hereYou should be able to do the same thing in the EMC by selecting "Emailaddresses" when you create a filter. I'd use this one first becasueyou can fix the duplicate address immediately in the GUI. find the groups with ADUC, too:Open the "Find" dialog box.Select "Custom search" in the drop-down list box.Select the "Advanced tab".Select "Entire Directory" in the "In" list box.Enter "proxyaddresses=smtp:Click "Find Now".---Rich MatheisenMCSE+I, Exchange MVP--- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

There are couple of methods nicely explained here along with pictures :)) Finding Duplicate SMTP Addresses http://www.msexchange.org/articles/Finding-Duplicate-SMTP-Addresses.html Vinod |CCNA|MCSE 2003 +Messaging|MCTS|ITIL V3|

Try Get-Recipient -Anr "email address"Karl

great, that solves the mystery.
