A Directory Export will look similar to the following.  Please see the Microsoft link provided below for instructions on how to create this export.

 

Obj Class First Name Last Name Display Name Alias Name Directory Name Primary Windows NT Account Home-Server E-mail address E-mail Addresses Members
dl     DL1 DL1 DL1       SMTP:DL1@XX.alpha.com
MS:alpha/XX/DL1
X400:c=US;a= ;p=alpha;o=XX;s=DL1;
CCMAIL:DL1 at XX
Recipients/cn=DL2
Recipients/cn=DL3
Recipients/cn=DL4
Recipients/cn=DL5
dl     DL2 DL2 DL2       SMTP:DL2@XX.alpha.com
MS:alpha/XX/DL2
X400:c=US;a= ;p=alpha;o=XX;s=DL2;
CCMAIL:DL2 at XX
Recipients/cn=Alpha
dl     DL3 DL3 DL3       SMTP:DL1@XX.alpha.com
MS:alpha/XX/DL3
X400:c=US;a= ;p=alpha;o=XX;s=DL3;
CCMAIL:DL3 at XX
Recipients/cn=DL4
Recipients/cn=DL5
Recipients/cn=ScottyB
dl     DL5 DL5 DL5       SMTP:DL1@XX.alpha.com
MS:alpha/XX/DL5
X400:c=US;a= ;p=alpha;o=XX;s=DL5;
CCMAIL:DL5 at XX
Recipients/cn=DL2
Recipients/cn=DL5

Once you have this information, you can edit the membership and then import it in the directory to make changes to the DL membership.

Please notice that in the membership column you can see the nested DL's and any individual users.
