What type of AD Groups were they ? Security groups won't work.SP 2010 "FAQ" (mainly useful links): http://wssv4faq.mindsharp.com/default.aspx WSS3/MOSS FAQ (FAQ and Links) http://wssv3faq.mindsharp.com/default.aspx Both also have links to extensive book lists and to (free) on-line chapters

Hi, I agree with Mike’s point of view. Since all security for SharePoint is designed around users and security groups it is impossible (not really but completely unusable) to add a Distribution List access to a SharePoint site.
