Believe me - I would love to go to native mode - but cannot when we still
have 8 other sites to migrate before we can complete and go to native mode.
Its taken years to get to this point, and the decision is out of my hands.
Corporate beauracracy and all.
For just about each DL list we do have a Security group. In my example of
"secretaries" we do have both the DL list and the security group.
I tried going into AD and adding the group by doing the CRTL while accessing
client permissions in exchange system manager. But this did not take effect
and once that is done, you cannot go back to the normal MAPI permissions.
How do you apply the client access to security groups and still utilize the
MAPI permissions?
