A mailbox must exist in the USER Table or be a valid network address to
be configured in a Distribution List.

counted only once in the USER Table.
A Distribution Iist may include other lists, as long as the lists do not, in

include the Distribution List of each department if none of the
department lists include other lists. This also applies to Extended
Mailboxes in Distribution Lists.
