Creating a room list and room mailbox with Exchange 2013

Room lists with Exchange 2013 are actually in reality Distribution Groups with the "RoomList" property enabled.

In order to create a room list we can use EMS:

New-DistributionGroup -Name "UK Office Rooms" -OrganizationalUnit "mydomain.com/meetingrooms" -RoomList

We can then add a room mailbox to the list:

Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "UK Office Rooms" -Member [email protected]

There is also a great little script I found on mikepfeiffer.net which returns all of the Room Lists in EMS:

foreach($roomlist in Get-DistributionGroup -RecipientTypeDetails RoomList) {
  $roomlistname = $roomlist.DisplayName
  Get-DistributionGroupMember $roomlist.alias |
    Select-Object @{n="Room List";e={$roomlistname}},
                  @{n="Room";e={$_.DisplayName}}   
}
