E-mail Distribution List and Mail Enabled Security Groups - Owner's Guide

An e-mail distribution list is used to send an e-mail message to multiple recipients (i.e. members of the list), while e-mail enabled security group can also be used to control access to booking and administering rooms and equipment. You must be the owner of the list or group in order to edit it. To find out which lists you are an owner of, please see My Groups website. Note that mail-enabled security groups are not included in "Groups I own" list.

If you make these changes to the Global Address List, they will be reflected immediately, and will be synchronised with the "offline global address list" of other users within 24 hours.

To edit an e-mail distribution list or e-mail enabled security group, perform the following steps:
