How do I secure distribution lists. I have added a user to the security group recipients management but this specific user can edit all distribution lists from within outlook. I need to lock it down so specific users can only edit specific distribution lists. how to I do this in exchange 2010?

The user has permission to modify the "member" property and that's an AD permission. Does the group in question have permission to modify the members property? If it does then you'll have to customize the permissions to fit your requirements. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

Hi jwestrock, "added a user to the security group recipients management" Do you mean the Recipient Management Security Group which is in the "Microsoft Exchange Security Groups" OU? If yes, the added user can management all DLs and mailbox users and so on. "Recipient Management" is also called Role Group which is a component of RBAC. RBAC is new permission mode for Exchange 2010.
