Free Training – How to Create Dynamic Distribution Group in Exchange Server 2010

Basically, “Dynamic Distribution Groups” exist as mail-enabled Active Directory group objects. They are created in order to speed up the process of mass sending emails and other crucial information within organizations.

These distribution groups have dynamic memberships since they allow the members to join and leave group dynamically. All group memberships are defended using a recipient filter.

In this tutorial, we learn how to create a Dynamic Distribution Group in EMC & EMS, both.

Creating Dynamic Distribution Group Using EMC:

Step 1: Open “Exchange Management Console” (EMC) and expand the “Recipient Configuration” option to select “Distribution Group.” Click on the “New Dynamic Distribution Group” option on the right side of EMC.
