At the end of this video, the student will learn how to create a distribution list in Exchange Server 2016. Distribution lists allow administrators to create objects that can be used to email multiple individuals using one address, and it is searchable in the global address list that is distributed to each user in Outlook and Outlook Web Access.
- [Instructor] When sending an email to a group of people,…you can individually fill in each name,…or you can email them all at once…using a common term of distribution list,…also known as distribution group.…Let's take a look in Outlook, and click on a New Email,…and if we want to send an email to Tom,…and we also want to send an email to Mary,…and we want to send an email to the Administrator.…
Well if you have 500 people you're trying to send…an email to that could be a real problem.…So what we can do in Exchange…is we can create a distribution group,…and we can send an email to all those folks all at once.…Let's go over to our Exchange admin center…and click on the recipients at the top left,…and then click on groups.…From here we'll click on the plus,…and we'll choose Distribution group.…
From here we're gonna give it a name,…and we'll just call it OfficeUsers,…and we'll keep it simple by calling our alias the same,…and then we'll go down the list…and we can see who's the owner of this particular group,…and by default it is the Administrator,…
