Distribution Lists
What is a distribution list?
A distribution list is an email address that you can add multiple recipients to.
When you send a message to the list's email address, that message is then forwarded to all members of the list.
This allows you to send the same message to everyone on a list, without needing to CC each person.
Configurable list options are:
Sending Mail:
- Anyone can send to this list
- Only members can send to this list
- Only internal users can send to this list
- Only specific users can send to this list
New Subscription Requests:
- Automatically accept
- Require list owner approval
- Automatically reject
Unsubscription Requests:
- Automatically accept
- Require list owner approval
- Automatically reject
External email addresses may also be added as list members.
It's possible for a Zimbra user to create and manage distribution lists from the webmail UI. Please see the following two articles for details on how to do that.
