Add a Distribution List to Hosted Messaging and Collaboration (HMC)

The following article explains how to add a distribution list for an Exchange domain. The distribution list contains a list of users that will receive email that is sent to listname@domainname.com. For example, if your distribution list is called list1 and contains 5 users, those 5 users will receive email that is sent to list1@domainname.com. Distribution lists are configured for the domain, not for a single user. To add a distribution list, you need to know the list name and the list administrator (the user responsible for the list).

To add a distribution list, please follow these steps:

1. Log into the HMC administration interface by logging into the control panel and clicking Hosted Exchange & SharePoint.
2. From the Main Menu, click Domain List.

   

3. Find the domain name and click Manage.

   

4. From the Main Menu, click Distribution Lists.

   

5. Click Add.

   

6. Enter the List Name.

   

7. Select a List Admin.
8. Click Add.
9. Allow a few minutes for the distribution list to be configured.
