Limit recipients of an email distribution group

Modified on Sat, Sep 30, 2023 at 9:31 AM

There might be an occasion when you want to limit who can send emails to a specific distribution group (like an IT Service Desk group).


To only allow certain users to send to a distribution group, open the group within the Exchange admin center.  Go to the Mail Flow Settings tab --> open the Message Delivery Restrictions property.  From there, you can add one or more specific users who you want to allow to send to the distribution group.
