About Groups

In Delegated Administrator, a group is an entry in the LDAP directory that comprises a list of users. Characteristics of the group are not passed on to the users who are members of the group. For example, when you assign a service package to a group, the service package attributes are not inherited by the users who are members of the group.

When a mail service package is assigned to a group, the group becomes a mailing list, which is used by Messaging Server.
