The EndDate parameter specifies the end date of the date range.

Use the short date format that's defined in the Regional Options settings on the computer where you're running the command. For example, if the computer is configured to use the short date format MM/dd/yyyy, enter 09/01/2018 to specify September 1, 2018. You can enter the date only, or you can enter the date and time of day. If you enter the date and time of day, enclose the value in quotation marks ("), for example, "09/01/2018 5:00 PM".

If you don't specify the time of day, the default value 0:00 AM is used. For example, the value 12/31/2022 is really "12/31/2022 0:00 AM", which means no data from 12/31/2022 is included (only data from 12/30/2022 is included).

You also need to use at least one of the following parameters in the command: MessageID, RecipientAddress, or SenderAddress.

The Locale parameter filters the results by the locale of the message.

Valid input for this parameter is a supported culture code value from the Microsoft .NET Framework CultureInfo class. For example, da-DK for Danish or ja-JP for Japanese. For more information, see CultureInfo Class.

The MessageId parameter filters the results by the Message-ID header field of the message. This value is also known as the Client ID. The format of the Message-ID depends on the messaging server that sent the message. The value should be unique for each message. However, not all messaging servers create values for the Message-ID in the same way. Be sure to include the full Message ID string (which may include angle brackets) and enclose the value in quotation marks (for example, "d9683b4c-127b-413a-ae2e-fa7dfb32c69d@DM3NAM06BG401.Eop-nam06.prod.protection.outlook.com").

The NetworkMessageId parameter filters the message tracking log entries by the value of the NetworkMessageId field. This field contains a unique message ID value that persists across copies of the message that may be created due to bifurcation or distribution group expansion. An example value is 1341ac7b13fb42ab4d4408cf7f55890f.

The NotifyAddress parameter specifies the email addresses of internal recipients to notify when the historical search is complete. The email address must be in an accepted domain that's configured for your organization. You can enter multiple email addresses separated by commas.

To view the results of the historical search, you need to specify at least one email address for the NotifyAddress parameter. Otherwise, you need to click on the completed message trace in the Exchange admin center at Mail flow > Message trace.

The OriginalClientIP parameter filters the results by the original IP address of the message. For incoming messages, the OriginalClientIP value is the sender's IP address. For outgoing messages, the OriginalClientIP value is the IP address of the external SMTP server that received the message.

The RecipientAddress parameter filters the results by the recipient's email address. You can specify multiple values separated by commas. The maximum number of addresses is 100.

The ReportTitle parameter specifies a descriptive name for the historical search. If the value contains spaces, enclose the value in quotation marks (").

The SenderAddress parameter filters the results by the sender's email address. You can specify multiple values separated by commas. The maximum number of addresses is 100.

The SmtpSecurityError parameter filters the results in OutboundSecurityReport reports by the error type of blocked messages when sent externally.

The StartDate parameter specifies the start date of the date range.

Use the short date format that's defined in the Regional Options settings on the computer where you're running the command. For example, if the computer is configured to use the short date format MM/dd/yyyy, enter 09/01/2018 to specify September 1, 2018. You can enter the date only, or you can enter the date and time of day. If you enter the date and time of day, enclose the value in quotation marks ("), for example, "09/01/2018 5:00 PM".
