Hello everyone,

I'm semi-new to the list and semi-new to security. :)

I've got a question that hopefully someone can answer. The answer should
be easy, but nothing I try seems to work.

Here's the scenario:

I've got a global distribution list that I want to lock down. Right now,
anyone
on the distribution list can add/remove other members to/from it. This
recently became a problem when it was reduced from 2000 members to
400 because someone was doing something they shouldn't be.

Obviously, only those people that we designate should have this power.
I've added the permissions tab to the list through Exchange administrator,
and according to the permissions on the DL, no one other than those
listed should have any modification rights whatsoever to it. But, that
doesn't
work. I've even added the everyone group and removed all of their rights
except the ability to search, but they can still add and remove members
at will just by calling up the DL within their Outlook client.

So, is there another place to look to accomplish this task?

Thanks in advance,

Brad
