You can configure personal distribution lists to send packages to a list of email
addresses and Faspex users. Each distribution list consists of a comma-separated list of
email addresses or Faspex usernames. The items in the list are not validated until you
try to send a package to the list.
Faspex lists your existing distribution lists on
the Edit Dstribution Lists page (Account > Edit Distribution
Lists) and presents the choice of editing existing lists,
duplicating a global list, or creating a new list. You cannot edit global
distribution lists from this page, but you can duplicate the list and then edit the
duplicated list. For more information on creating and editing
global distribution lists, see Creating a Global Distribution List.
-
Go to Account > Edit Distribution Lists and create a new
distribution list.
-
Name the distribution list.
Important: Do not choose a name for your distribution list that is
the same as a member user or workgroup name.
-
Enter up to 50 contacts. Contacts can be email addresses or Faspex usernames.
You cannot send packages to a distribution list if any recipient in the list
is an invalid user. For example, if a user is an external user and the option to
send to external users is disabled, the external user is considered invalid and
package sending fails. If the admin enables the Ignore invalid
recipients option, package sending does not fail even if the
list contains an invalid user. Faspex skips any invalid user and delivers the
package to all valid recipients in the list. ( Go to
Server > Security and, under the Faspex accounts
section, select Ignore invalid
recipients.)
You can enter email addresses in three ways.
-
Click Create.
After creating a distribution list, the list appears on the Editing Distribution
Lists page. You can edit the name and contacts list, or import contacts by clicking
Import Contacts from CSV. After making changes, click
Update Distribution Lists to save the changes. You can also
delete distribution lists by clicking the
Delete link for the
list.
