Hi Scott,
Here is a way to test your search. Download the ExBPA tool from the microsoft site http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/exbpa
Run the tool and expand the Exchange server object down through the recipient policies object. the purported serch is the LDAP
filter used for the policy. You could use LDIFDE like this
ldifde -f output.ldf -f "=(&(&(& (mailnickname=*) (| (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(|(homeMDB=*)
(msExchHomeServerName=*)))(objectCategory=group) ))))" -dn
This will create a report (output.ldf) that you can look at to make sure your filter is correct.
The section between the quotes is the purported search from the exbpa output.
I don't mean to be continually harping on this but I've tested this with my own systems and the only person who get the notification is
the one person who I have filtered for. My filter was based on the email address.
