gnussbaum hello, maybe this helps:
- i have only exchange on-prem
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DDL-Test" -Alias DDL-Test -OrganizationalUnit "yourAdDomain/yourOU/yourOUforSavingDistributingList" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientTypeDetails -eq 'UserMailbox') -and (Description -eq 'Employee'))} -RecipientContainer "yourAdDomain/yourOU/OUwithUsers"
- you dont need Parameter "-RecipientContainer", if your scope is the entire AD
- i didnt do this with the description field, but can test this in the next few days
- if you have exchange online would say is the same, but not sure
best wishes
