Getting Started
New Distribution List
1. Gather the desired name for the distribution list. Ensure the name is not already in use by checking the global address list in Outlook. Note that all distribution lists will start with "DL - (desired name)".
2. Decide who will be the owner(s) of the distribution list. There can be more than one owner. Include the owners' email addresses in your request.
Modify the Distribution List Name
To change the name of a distribution list, the owner must submit the current name and the desired changes.
Delete or Remove a Distribution List
To delete a distribution list, the owner must submit a request with the list's name asking for its removal from the system. Note that once deleted, the list can be re-created, but prior users cannot be recovered.
Modify User(s) (Receivers, Owners, and Senders) of a Distribution List
- Adding Users to a College-wide or Campus-wide Distribution List: Employees are automatically added based on their position and location at the college. Leaders do not need to request their employees be added to a list. However, if an employee works at multiple campuses and needs to be added to multiple lists, the leader must submit a request with the employee's name, G number, and distribution list name(s).
- Adding Users to Non-College-wide or Non-Campus-wide Distribution List: Please reach out to the owner of the list to have an employee added. If no owner is listed, the leader can submit a request with the employee's name, G number, and distribution list name(s).
- Adding Owners to a Distribution List: Owners of a distribution list can add and remove employees from the list. Leaders must submit the employee's name, G number, and distribution list name(s).
- Adding Send To Rights to College-wide or Campus-wide Distribution List: Send To rights allow an employee to email College-wide or Campus-wide distribution lists. These lists are restricted, and Send To rights must be approved by the employee's SLCC member or higher. To request Send To rights, the SLCC Leader must provide the employee's name, G number, and distribution list name(s).
