How to find out all exchange distribution lists user is manager of
I need a way to find out which distribution lists an active directory account is a manager of.
ASKER
Actually I need to get all the distribution groups managed by named account. So if I could do some sort of customized query for userA tha would return all DL's managed by userA
Is this Windows Server 2008 or 2003 + SP2. If yes You can use LDAP query using LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAI
Example #4 describes your situation:

Example 4: Verify the reporting hierarchy under a user
To verify the users who report to User1, you can use the following parameters in the query:
Base: users container or any container above it (cn=users, dc=domain)
Scope: subtree
Note A query to a one-level depth also works if all the users are in one flat container.
Query: (manager:OID:=User1DN)
Returns: The distinguished name of all the users who effectively report to User1.
(...)
But You need to query DLs instead of users and managedBy attribute
