Re: PING distribution list

Hi,


I would need something like a "tracking option" in outlook, and you
get delivered or not delivered, but I wouldn't like to send tens of
"Do not reply, IT test" messages around.
Some of our sites are falling of the network and their local exchange
server are failing, so without sending everybody an email I would like
to check if email would go trough. Also to check new distribution lists
too...

Something like a pinger, pinging list of IP addresses to se if PC are
connected and powered..


Regards,

IVAN

Aloha ivan.bojat@xxxxxxxxx,

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Are you somehow unsure that the
AD members in your DistGroup are valid?

Hi there,

I would like to test the distribution group in Exchange 2003 or 5.5. I
would NOT like to send a email to all members of the distribution
list, so is there a way just to, sort of, PING the group and then to
get pingbacks, successful or unsuccessful, from members for the group.

Best regards,

IVAN
