Corporate (customer) distribution lists are created by an administrator or a user
with access to a customer’s main number voice mail box and are available for use
by all of a customer’s users. By default, corporate group number 10 in each
customer partition is named “Everyone”, includes all mailboxes within a company
and is available to all users. The “Everyone” group is updated whenever a mailbox
assigned to the customer partition is added or deleted.
The following options are available when you access the distribution groups menu
