Mailing Lists

Use this section to determine how to configure 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:

1In Server Admin, select a computer in the Servers list, then select Mail.

2Click Settings.

3Select the Mailing Lists tab.

4Click Enable Server Group Mailing Lists.

5Enter 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.

6In 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.
