Set Distribution group notes

Question

I'm trying to change the distribution group notes via powershell on a Exchange 2010 Server.

This is the way how to set the notes during creating a new group:

New-DistributionGroup "G_test" -Notes "TESTTEST"

But how to set the notes after creating the group?

Answer 1

I've found the solution: It looks like Exchange does not distinguish between the group types in some points. So you have to use Set-Group (Not Set-DistributionGroup) to change the notes attribute.

Example

Set-Group –identity G_test –Notes “For chess lovers!”
