Mailing Lists
Use this section to determine how to congure and manage mailing lists with built-in
mailing list functionality of Mac OS X Server.
Setting Up a Wiki-Based Mailing List
To send mail messages to all members of a wiki group, you can enable server group
mailing lists. Each member of the wiki group receives a copy of messages sent to the
group address.
To enable wiki-based mailing lists:
1 In Server Admin, select a computer in the Servers list, then select Mail.
2 Click Settings.
3 Select the Mailing Lists tab.
4 Click Enable Server Group Mailing Lists.
5 Enter an interval for how frequently the recipients list is updated.
The mail server rescans the group membership periodically. Members added to the
group between updates of the recipients list won’t receive messages until the mail
server reads the group membership record.
6 In Workgroup Manager, enable the Mailing List service for each group you want to
have a mailing list address.
The setting is located in the Basic group options in Workgroup Manager.
For information about using Workgroup Manager, see Open Directory Administration.
Note: The address for a group-based list is group_shortname@ServerDNSname.
