Jake’s PowerShelling: Getting list of spam emails in Office 365

So basically people sometimes call & say something about not receiving an email from someone or they think that emails are getting blocked by spam.

So wrote a small script that will connect to Exchange Online & then prompt for the amount of days back you want to check for spam and also which user. 

The script then exports it to a CSV file & opens it for you so you can view it.

 

#You need the ExchangeOnlineManagmenet module installed in powershell 
#Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement


#Import exchange
Import-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement
Connect-ExchangeOnline

#set todays date and the amount of time to seach back
$today = Get-Date
$DaysBack = Read-Host -Prompt 'Input the days you want to go back'

#set the amount of days you want to go back 
$yesterday = (get-date).AddDays(-$DaysBack) 

# set who's mailbox you want to check
$recipient = Read-Host -Prompt 'Enter users email'

#mark status you want to search for
$Status = "FilteredAsSpam" 


Get-MessageTrace -StartDate $yesterday -EndDate $today -RecipientAddress $recipient -Status $Status | Select MessageID,Received,*Address,*IP,Subject,Status,Size | Format-Table

Invoke-Item C:\Temp\SpamResults.csv
