Distribution List (System)
System lists are created using the Distribution List Editor screen (see 
 and 
) and 
are an excellent means of distributing interoffice memos to a large group of people in a timely 
manner. The lists also eliminate the need of every user creating a similar personal list.You can 
create as many system-wide lists as you need. Examples of such lists include all users in the system 
or in a specific department and all company managers.
Note
Messages can only be sent to Distribution Lists from within a mailbox. A Distribution List 
cannot be dialed by outside callers.
Voice mail processes mail sent to mailing lists as a low-priority task. Therefore, it may take several 
minutes to send the message to everyone on a large list, especially if the system is busy.
