[1] Yes [2] Not to my knowledge, using standard tools. Addresses are resolved to the primary at p1 (almost step 1 of transport submission). There is a HUGE (meant to be printed on 24"x36", I think) very detailed diagram/outline of the Transport service for 2010.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21987 See the section titled "Categorizer". To do what you want would require a transport "hook" at the entry prior to OnSubmittedMessage. Can it be done? Yes. Is it trivial? No. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Buff Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2015 5:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Exchange] Problem counting/tracking emails - exchange 2010, fully patched I looked at the article - it's good. But I need to refine my second question, I suppose. DL1 is a member of DL2 and DL3. It has two smtp addresses: [email protected] (primary) and [email protected] (secondary) - I don't like it, but that's how it is currently. When I run this fine one-liner: Get-MessageTrackingLog -Start "11/17/2015 12:00:00" -EventId Expand -resultsize unlimited | export-csv -notype c:\temp\report.csv I get nice output, with counts for the DLs I'm interested in. However I would like to know a couple of things: o- Does the message count for DL1 include the message counts for DL2 and DL3, because of the way expansion happens? If yes to the above, I believe I just need to do some simple math to arrive at the message count for emails sent directly to DL1 o- Is there a way to differentiate between emails sent to [email protected] and [email protected]? The messages end up going to the same DL, of course, but inquiring minds want to know... Thanks, Kurt On Tue, Nov 17, 2015 at 1:43 PM, Michael B.
