You are looking at the wrong side of the barn door. A DG never has a deliver event. It's already been bifurcated, as many times as necessary, to delivery destinations.
You want to look at the RECEIVE event or the EXPAND event. I'm not sure what your second question means. Take a look at this article and see if it answers your question. :-) http://exchangepedia.com/2009/02/are-distribution-groups-really-being-used.html -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Buff Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2015 3:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Exchange] Problem counting/tracking emails - exchange 2010, fully patched I'm having a wee problem with get-messagetrackinglogs. 2 problems, actually. I'm running the commands below on our combined DB/Hub server... First: I have a DL that I'm trying to track - we want the number of emails it has received. When I use this: Get-MessageTrackingLog -ResultSize Unlimited -Start -Recipients [email protected] -EventID DELIVER I see no results, but when I parse the SMTP logs, I see lots of results for all of the SMTP addresses. When I use my own email address in get-messagetrackinglog, I see my results. What gives? Second: the DL I'm looking after is actually a member of 8 or 9 other DLs. I've tried putting all of their SMTP addresses in the recipients field, with comma delimiters and both with and without double quotes, and I'm getting an error when I do that. SFTW hasn't shown me anything regarding them - or rather one of the errors shows no results, the other shows a few people having the problem and no particular resolution that I can find. The error I'm seeing is: The server software doesn't support the type of search requested. + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [Get-MessageTrackingLog], LocalizedException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 65B97638,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.TransportLogSearchTasks.GetMessageTrackingLog Any help would be much appreciated.
