Reverting Mailbox restrictions and permissions

Question
-
Hi, One of our admins has managed to run a script that seems to have reconfigured the 'Messgae Delivery Restrictions' users/groups senders in error for 100+ different distribution groups.
Is it possible to revert these settings as these were all customised with various different users?
We are using Exchange 2010

You would have to run that script to reverse what was set or manually. There is no un-do setting unless you want to simply clear all those - you can set to $null and it will use the org defaults- Proposed as answer by David Wang_Moderator Thursday, February 16, 2017 2:41 AM

OK. I feared that was the case. The script seemed to modify this setting adding users permissions to 'send to' explicitly (thus removing any user that is not specified)..

OK so just to clarify, is there a log of events for this? (eg. similar to the exchange management shell command log, that displays a list of groups that had permissions changed - what users have been REMOVED access and those that have been ADDED)?Thursday, February 16, 2017 11:02 AM

Search the admin audit log and see what it shows ( assuming its enabled)
