In this demonstration, we're going to learn how to create a distribution group.
So I'm going to go ahead here in the Admon Center and click on groups and I'm going to click on groups
again.
Notice we have all these groups.
Some of these are built in.
Some of these are user groups that we've created.
So an example, we have Sofa's domain administrators.
Well, now we use Sophus antivirus here.
So those are automatically being added in.
We have SQL Server admins.
We have Windows, Small Business Server admins.
All of these are just groups from the actual Windows server because at one point we had exchange loaded
on premise.
And then we migrated everything to Office 365 and we have it synchronized.
So sometimes you're going to see stuff in here that doesn't seem to have anything to do with email.
And that's okay.
If it's a new tenant, you may not see it.
But again, if you're migrating from an old server, you may actually see some of these carryover.
If you want to add a group, you just simply click on add group.
You get to pick which kind.
So I'm going to call it a distribution.
Let's give it a new name.
I'll call it the office distribution.
I'll click on next.
We have to give that group an actual e-mail address.
And it's going to be at Santur Classroom Netcom.
And next.
Now, notice here, we've created it.
We've named it, we've given it in an actual e-mail address.
But right now, I don't have any memberships.
So I'm going to click on Create Group.
New group is created can take up for an hour for to appear in the group lists.
If you don't see it yet now go to the exchange admin center.
Let's go give it a click under recipients.
We have groups.
And you'll see it's appeared right here.
So I'd like to just point that out because it says it can take up to an hour.
I have actually never seen it take up to an hour, but it is definitely an option.
So let me go ahead and open that group up.
So I'm going to now edit a distribution list.
And what I'm looking for first is owners.
So I'm only it because I created it.
I can add remove members under members.
Notice there aren't any yet.
So let's go ahead and hit a plus and let's go ahead and pick Pam.
Jim.
And Dwight, I'm using my control key to add them and select them.
We'll hit OK.
It will go ahead.
And it's safe.
And that's how you create a distribution group.
