Purpose
Some employees may become assigned as owners of an Exchange Online distribution list. This KB will show users how to manage the users of the distribution list using Outlook web or Outlook desktop
What is a distribution list?
A distribution list or group is a feature in email systems that allows you to send a single message to multiple people at once. Instead of typing in each person's email address individually, you send the email to the distribution list, and it automatically goes to everyone included in that group. This is helpful for teams, departments, or any group of people who need to receive the same information regularly.
Scope
