I need to get the members of several distributions groups in Exchange, I use the Get-DistributionGroupMember - identity 'Group Name' but there is no recursive function.
I need help in getting the members of the groups even the nested groups.

dunno if this will help you but i had to get a list of all user of groups in a specific OU.

script:

$myCol = @()
ForEach ($Group in (Get-QADGroup -SearchRoot “domain.corp/OUname” -SizeLimit 0 -GroupType Security))
{
ForEach ($Member in (Get-QADGroupMember $Group))
{
$myObj = "" | Select Group, Member
$myObj.Group = $Group.Name
$myObj.Member = $Member.Name
$myCol += $myObj
}
}
$myCol | Export-Csv -Path "C:\SGMembers.csv" -NoTypeInformation

i'm sure you can do something similar with distribution groups, i will take a look in a test enviroment.

just change the object type from security to distribution.

$myCol = @()
ForEach ($Group in (Get-QADGroup -SearchRoot “domain.corp/distribution groups” -SizeLimit 0 -GroupType distribution))
{
ForEach ($Member in (Get-QADGroupMember $Group))
{
$myObj = "" | Select Group, Member
$myObj.Group = $Group.Name
$myObj.Member = $Member.Name
$myCol += $myObj
}
}
$myCol | Export-Csv -Path "C:\DGMembers.csv" -NoTypeInformation




This did the trick for me :D, you will need quest active directory cmdlets.

Thanks, I actually used a similar script utilizing Quests AD PowerShell comandlets, but in this case those wont work, i'm querying the exchange server for distibution groups.

if you trying to get members of nested groups i'm sure the script above will output the information you need. Like i said change the grouptype to distribution and then you good to go.
