Go back into EMC, recipient configuration, distribution group. New distribution group and choose existing group.James Chong MCITP | EA | EMA; MCSE | M+, S+ Security+, Project+, ITIL msexchangetips.blogspot.com

Frank Wang and Sukh828, Thank you both for the replies but I still do not see the groups that were disabled? Is it possible that some Exchange Utility cleaned up these disabled groups?Jason

Can you explain what you mean by you don't see the disabled groups? When you try to create a DL via EMC and choose existing group does the existing AD group not show?James Chong MCITP | EA | EMA; MCSE | M+, S+ Security+, Project+, ITIL msexchangetips.blogspot.com

You are correct James. While following the steps above, I do not see the disabled groups.Jason

Check the recipient scope. Is this a multi-domain forest?

No, this is a single domain and single forest. Like I said, I can see these groups in AD Users and Computers. Weird that I am unable to see these objects in EMC.Jason

Hi Jason,
Which version of Exchange do you use?
Please check whether the group is universal one or not as Sukh said.
Can you run the cmdlet Get-Group "group name" to get the information of the group.
Please also try to run the cmdlet to mail-enable the DG.
