FWIW We had a couple Dynamic DG's that were acting up depending on who used them; turned out it was due to an expansion server being specified. Removed that specification and everything was happy:) From: Dave Wade [mailto:dave.w...@stockport.gov.uk] Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2012 12:00 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Distribution group dont work anymore http://outlook-center.com/Messages-are-not-delivered-to-distribution-groups/12/ might help a little...

All other email flow is OK, so i suspect it is a problem with email routing or distribution queries to AD that are gone wrong,...Our default routing group is sending emails through a smarthost.
