 ====== Zimbra Distribution Lists ====== ====== Zimbra Distribution Lists ======
 +
 +E-Mail distribution lists are a great way to help mail admins manage their mailboxes and conserve resources.
 +
 +Distribution lists are generally a one way thing: you **send a message to a single address and the message is copied to all members** of the distribution list.  However, with a bit of additional permissions configuration, users can **send as** a distribution list 'identity' as well (if this functionality is desired).
 +
 +Distribution lists can often be used **instead of creating one or more additional e-mail accounts**, saving time and money.
 +
 +Zimbra Distribution Lists can be administered right from the Zimbra Web Client (**Contacts -> Distribution Lists**).
 +
 +<note important>Only **Distribution List Owners** can **modify** distribution lists **from the Zimbra Web Client**.</note>
 +
 +<note tip>The default for new Distribution Lists **allows anyone to send to the distribution list**.  You must be an Owner of the distribution list to be able to modify this using the ZWC.</note>
