Send-As Exchange Universal Distribution Group

Last updated on April 1st, 2023 at 08:40 pm

INTRODUCTION

If you want to allow a user to ‘Send-as’ a Universal Distribution Group, you cannot do this by right clicking the Distribution Group in Exchange and managing send-as permissions as you would with a shared mailbox or user mailbox.

GUIDE

However, the following will allow you to carry this task using Active Directory instead of from within Exchange:

• Open Active Directory Users & Computers
• Activate Advanced Features in the View menu
• Find the distribution list you want to send as
• Open the properties and go to the Security tab
• Add the user or group in question
• Check the Send As permission
• Apply/OK

This should now give the end user permissions to send as a Distribution Group.
