having a user be able to modify groups

Hi

I have a user who is an exchange admin. Odd, I know. But can she go into outlook and make changes to the company's distribution lists just in outlook365 somehow? I just want her to have the ability to add and remove members

 

I remember at another company if a person was a manager of a group they could just navigate to it in the GAL and "modify" members. I want her to have this access

outlook

    Hi teg2021,

     

    If the distribution groups are sync'ing from local AD to O365 (AAD Connect), the membership can be managed only from on-premise AD/Exchange servers. If the distribution groups are created directly on O365, your Exchange admin can manage its membership from https://outlook.office365.com/ecp. If she's added as an owner of the DL (which she can do herself from the EAC), then she'll be able to manage its membership from Outlook as well.
