Add external email domain to approved internal only dist list.

Question

We currently have our internal distribution list setup so only, people from xxx@XXXX.com(Our domain),&nbsp; ex: I can send a email to&nbsp;&nbsp; internal-managers@XXXX.com, but if somebody outside our organization tries to send an email to it, it would be rejected .&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is there a way to add another organizations to that list.&nbsp;&nbsp; We now want all_people@YYYYY.com&nbsp; to be able to send emails to that dist list along with ours, but nobody else.

Hmm, AFAIK, don’t think you could add it to the DL specifically without setting it to accept from external, then having to put a mail rule on there.

You could try the following

1.) Set up a shared mailbox
2.) Set rules on the shared mailbox to only accept from the external domain
3.) Set a forwarder on the shared mailbox to the DL

Let me know how it goes would be interested to see if this works

Best, Chris
