In February we released our new <\/a>Exchange web management user interface<\/a><\/strong>. Now that everyone is on the new platform, we’re quickly moving to add new features and tweak the ones that are not as intuitive. Remember, our goal with Wrkoo<\/a> and our M365 UI management is to make it as simple and user friendly that any office manager can handle what are routinely clerical tasks like distribution group memberships. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Distribution Group<\/strong> Management<\/strong> is the feature we’re launching today: a friendly way to manage distribution groups. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Organizations of all sizes use distribution groups to setup internal and external mailing lists, so that one role address like sales@ or info@ can be automatically delivered to multiple people. Distribution groups and shared mailboxes play a vital role in how entire departments communicate with internal and external parties, and ExchangeDefender makes managing them a snap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

First, go to\u00a0https:\/\/support.ownwebnow.com<\/a> and click on Service Manager<\/strong>. Select the organization<\/em> you wish to manage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

To quickly create a distribution group<\/strong>, click on the checkbox next to the users that you want to add to the distribution group. As you check users you will see a new toolbar for mass user management: Change Password, Create new group, and Add to existing group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

To manage existing groups<\/strong>, click on the Distribution Groups tab. From here you can manage group members or delete distribution groups. Click on Manage Members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

From here you can just select users to add<\/strong> and remove. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, you can also find out which groups a user belongs to. Click Manage<\/strong> on the user you wish to review and then select Group Memberships. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
