How do I convert a distribution list to a mailbox

Is there a way to convert a distribution list to a mailbox ?

Hi, 
While this  is possible, we have found that once you have moved the smtp address to the newly created mailbox, any user who had the smtp address cached in their outlook profile will receive a NDR, and would require to delete the auto-completed address
before being able to send mail to it.
Is there any specific attributes that can be copied/migrated across to prevent this disruption?
We have an urgent requirement to change the distribution group to a user mailbox that is frequently used company wide and would be very keen to ensure the transition is seamless from an end-user perspective.
Any help would be much appreciated,
MKA

  • How do I email a distribution list in Entourage?

    I would like to share some of my distribution lists with friends.
    How can I email the distribution list? I can't drag a group icon into the mail message like in Outlook.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks. I was hoping to find something other than Groups, because when you sync with a mobile device, it maps the groups to Categories in the device. This adds a lot of complexity to data and many mobile devices have some limitations on categories.
    But thanks for the quick response!

  • How to send mail to distribution list and another table list

    Hi
    I am facing a problem. I need to send mail to the user who is creating the SO/PO and a distribution list.
    Problem is only one thing can be used at the same time. ie either Distribution list or list from internal table.
    How can we use both in 1 function module. Like it should call the internal table and then the distribution list for sending the mail .

  • How to create an anonymous Distribution List ?

  • How to set up text distribution list

    I found out how to set up an email distribution list without buying an app but now I need to know how to do the same with sending texts, without buying an app and by associating a contact to it. I don't want to send a group text and only access that group by pulling up the text screen. All I want to do is assign a few numbers to a group name and use that group name to send a next message to the recipients. Any ideas?

    Since a phone number field in Contacts does not have the ability to delineate between numbers, probably not. Theoretically, I suppose it could work if applied for recipients getting iMessages AND using email as the receive address, but hard to say. But for SMS texting, no.

  • How to add an SAP distribution list to transport?

    Hi All,
    I have created a shared distribution list in SAP using SO15. Can anyone suggest me how to add this list to a transport? or I need to create this in each environment.
    Please suggest on this issue.
    Thanks in advance
    Prady

    What does that mean? So I have to create it in each environment(i.e. Development/Quality/Production) explicitly. By no means I can transport this list then?
    Thanks for your quick response.
    With regards

  • How does everyone manage Email Distribution Lists in E-Business Suite

    We have heaps of email distribution lists stored in Oracle Ebusiness Suite, excel, access ..you name it!
    I would like to use a standard method for tagging contacts in the CRM Sales and Marketing Online so our employees can run reports to create external mailing lists.
    Today we use classification codes to do this. Have also thought about using a descriptive flex field and report on that to create a contact list with name and email addresses.
    Anybody have a better idea for how to achieve this in Oracle Marketing/Sales Online?
    Ideally, we would like to create a customer facing website so people could subscribe/unsubscribe from email lists and have it fully integrated 'plugged in' to the above solution.

    Thanks Ravi for your response.
    No, no such kind of reasons.
    Indeed I can send successfully to a simple email address but not to the distribution list ...
    The problem is right there, in the fact that there is a ditribution list but I really don't know what's the problem ...
    Have you ever use a distribution list? Any special thing to do with it?
    A'll appreciate any help.

  • How can I put a distribution list in my contacts for my iphone4s ?

  • How Do I Manage "Group"/"Distribution List" Members?

    I downloaded iCloud recently to my android smart phone.  I use Outlook 2007 as my mail program.  When I"m on my pc (MS 8.1) & check my contacts, I find my "distribution lists"/'Groups" in a new list on the left side, but I cannot open these "lists/groups" therefore,  I cannot manage membership on them.   The "groups" won't open to show me who the members are.
    How do I solve this question?

    In Contacts, you can create Groups, of course. First and best, make the Groups visible (Command-1, or click View in the menu bar, then Groups).
    You add contacts to Groups per simple drag and drop. You delete contacts from Groups by pressing backspace, or delete (if you have the extended keyboard), or -> Edit -> Remove From Group.

    Dear Allan,  Very interesting solutions to a stuck disk.  I'm going to keep it for future.
    I finally did get my disk out - because I started up using my Mtn.Lion BU (it's a Firewire) which I connected to my old MM late 2009.  There she was & I ejected it.
    And I did finally get my MM  2009 working again with Snow Leopard - with the great help from ds store.
    So now I have my Appleworks back too.   YAH!
