If you need to preview the members of a Dynamic Distribution Group then you can do this easily using the Get-Recipient and Get-DynamicDistributionGroup cmdlets. The following example returns the list of members in the “Newport Users” DDG:

$DDG = Get-DynamicDistributionGroup "Newport Users"
Get-Recipient -RecipientPreviewFilter $DDG.RecipientFilter -OrganizationalUnit $DDG.RecipientContainer
