I hate message tracking in Exchange 2010 and 2013.. but to actually pull apart the SMTP logs is massive pain in the arse.
Isnt there a way to do that within LPS? I had to do something similar once, but I forgot the syntax. From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Question about Message Tracking and Dynamic Distribution Groups Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2014 17:34:40 +0000 I had a client call with exactly the same problem yesterday. I haven’t had time to look at it. Probably late this afternoon. I’ll tell you what I see. J I will say, quite frankly, that I dislike the Get-MessageTrackingLog cmdlet. Sometimes getting it to work right seems more like voodoo than science. I generally find it more workable to open up the message tracking log directly in notepad, strip the first 3 lines, change the fourth line into a header line, save the file as a csv, and import it into Excel. YMMV.

Here is what I am trying to figure out: If you run a command similar to the one below, you should see under the recipients section a RECEIVED / EXPAND Event ID right? I am scratching my head, because I do not see either of those but when I looked at the clients Sent items section.. it was there. Get-TransportServer | Get-MessageTrackingLog -Recipient [email protected] -Start "1/31/2014 00:00:00" -End "1/31/2014 23:59:59" -MessageSubject "Testing - 123" | select Timestamp,EventID,Source,{$_.Recipients} | Export-CSV C:\Adam_Farage\MsgTracking.csv Thanks guys and gals!
