Hi

We have an Exchange 2007 mail-enabled distribution group, that is also used
for sending emails from Outlook.
When a user, that is member of this distribution group sends an email from
this group-mail address (select from field in Outlook and add group-name
into it) to a valid e-mail address all works OK. But when the receipient
e-mail address is not valid (wrong) user that is member of this distribution
group that was used for sending don't get reply back that this mail address
not exists? Any ideas what to check?

Wow, what a crosspost! :-) No need to do that. Pick a handful of relevant
groups....in fact, the best one is microsoft.public.exchange.admin. The 2000
groups don't get much traffic anymore.

What you describe is normal behavior. You can't receive NDRs *as* a group.

Sorry my mistake.
Thank you for explanation. Is there any other way, so you can receive NDRs
to a group?
