Suffering from a lack of inspiration I decided to rework a previous script.
I had a request on my previous messagerestriction script.
Added to the script is the option to enter the smtp address of
the user or group object for which the messagerestrictions are set.
I have done that by re-using code from this script.
Another question was the option to output to a file,
this can be done easily by running the script like this:

cscript enumeratesendtorights.vbs > thefilenameofyourchoice.txt.

Follow the next steps to run the script (no admin rights needed):

* find the distinguished name of the nested group (adsiedit.msc)
* open your favorite text editor
* copy and paste the script into the editor
* change the distinguished name
* save the script (for example c:tempenumeratesendtorights.vbs)
* open a command prompt
* go to “c:temp”
* give “cscript enumeratesendtorights.vbs” (without quotes) and enter

The script:

' Name : enumeratesendtorights.vbs
' Description : script to enumerate the message restrictions (send to rights) of a distributionlist

When you have problems/questions with the script please post a reply.

Happy scripting.
