    I believe you will have to use some other attribute.  Perhaps you can put the OU into one of the extension attributes and then sort on that.

    Agree with Ed, OU isn't a property of a user.

    You can append a custom attribute to users in this OU, for example:

    Get-Mailbox -OrganizationalUnit "abc.local/OU1" | Set-Mailbox -CustomAttribute1 "test"

    I don't believe that is supported.  It was a hard thing to do in LDAP as well.

    That means once we created a Dynamic DL that applied to abc.local . There is no option to limit this to ou1/abc.local , ou2/abc.local;  by excluding  ou3/abc.local etc.

    Can please flash somemore light in to this . This is an usrgent request because all mailboxes in conractors ou is getting mail while sending to all@abc.com. Please let me if there is any other work around in this issue .

    Thanks in adavance...
