Exchange 2010 Dynamic Groups Recipient Filter format
I am trying to create a custom recipient filter to create dynamic distribution groups.
New-DynamicDistributionGro
1. Its not clear when to use 'location1' or "location1" Appreciate any clarification on that
2. the above syntax is incorrect. I can use the above to create a group for that location, but i want to be able to exclude users with a specific department field. Its too unwieldy to include 99 of 100 departments, i prefer to just filter out the ones i dont want.
3. how to i have multiple departments excluded
Many thanks

You are creating DDL for those are based on location1 and recipient type is user mailbox, if you don't want them to filter location wise then remove -and Office -eq "Location1” syntax. To filter multiple departments use or condition as below mentioned.
