Mac Srv: Group Definition Propagated to Other Mail Servers

SUMMARY

In versions 3.0 and later of Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks version, the definition of system groups, the members who make up the group, is propagated to other Mail servers.

NOTE: System groups are groups defined by the Network Manager versus Personal Groups created by individual users.

If a group definition contains other groups, all groups are expanded before group information is propagated to other Mail servers. This is a change from Microsoft Mail version 2.0, which only propagated the name of the group. This meant that any mail sent to a group had to be forwarded to the Mail server where the group was defined.
