Question : Help with Get-messagetrackinglog

Hi,
I need help with creating a script that would query the message tracking log and output to a file- wich is simple and I have thatrunning.The problem is that is that I have a large amount of aliases to query, so for now I have the code snippit below,  per alias.
Thing is I have 300 aliases to go through and the process is clumzy and slow.
Would you know how to abreviate the process?
For example, how would i use foreach in this instance?
Is there a way mabe to generate such a report( similar in output,without installing extra software like MOM)?

Code Snippet:

1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6:

$StartDate = (get-date).AddDays(-2) $EndDate = (get-date).AddDays(-1) get-messagetrackinglog -ResultSize Unlimited -EventID "RECEIVE" -Recipient:[email protected] -Server "servername" -Start $StartDate -End $EndDate | format-table Sender, Timestamp, MessageSubject, EventID > e:\count\aliasname.txt start-sleep -s 30 $aliasnamesub= Get-Content e:\count\aliasname.txt $aliasnamesubject = $aliasnamesub.Length-5

The count for the CSV using Get-Content will be slightly out, at least 2 higher than the count of items returned (header line and a powershell line).

No default blank lines though, it should be accurate after that. However, perhaps we can do this:

Import-CSV "FileName.csv" | %{
  $Results = Get-MessageTrackinglog -ResultSize Unlimited -EventID "RECEIVE" `
    -Recipient $_.Alias -Server "servername -Start $_.Start -End $_.End
  $Results | Export-CSV "$($_.Alias).csv"
  $Results.Count >> "$($_.Alias).csv"
}

That should tack a result count onto the bottom of the CSV file (I hope). Is that what you're looking for?
