Get mailcontact if member of any group
Hi Tech Community, May I ask how can I accomplish the subject? I want to know before removing a mail contact if it is a member of a Distribution group. Best Regards, Mark
Here's a fast way to do it:
$dn = (Get-MailContact your_mail_contact).DistinguishedName
Get-Recipient -Filter "Members -eq '$dn'"
This will return all DGs, mail-enabled SGs and O365 Groups the contact might be a member of. And since it's a server-side filter, you don't need to iterate over each group.
VasilMichevthe need for speed? try this...
Get-ADObject -LDAPFilter "(&(objectCategory=contact)(objectClass=contact)(memberOf=*))" -Properties Name,MemberOf,CanonicalName | ft Name,CanonicalName,memberof -wrap
