You install Windows Essential Business Server (EBS) 2008 on the network. The network contains 1500 users that are managed by Windows EBS servers. You are in the process of configuring the Messaging Server.
Management wants to send mass mailers to all users in certain departments of the company. Some mass mailers are required to be mailed only to users in a specific department. To achieve this, you want to create a group that uses recipient filters and conditions to derive its membership at the time the message is sent.
Which type of group should you create?
A.
Mail-enabled distribution group
B.
Mail-enabled security group
C.
Mail-enabled public folder
D.
Dynamic distribution group
Explanation:
You should create a dynamic distribution group. The mail-enabled Active Directory service group objects that are used to expedite the mass sending of e-mail messages are referred to as distribution groups. There are three types of distribution groups in Exchange Server 2007: mail-enabled distribution groups, mail-enabled security groups, and dynamic distribution groups. Dynamic distribution groups use recipient filters and conditions to derive their membership at the time the message is sent.You should not create a mail-enabled distribution group. Though mail-enabled distribution groups are used to expedite the mass sending of e-mail messages and other information, this type of group does not use recipient filters and conditions to derive their membership. When you create a mail-enabled distribution group, you are required to add the contact objects to the group manually. A contact object is a mail-enabled Active Directory contact that contains information about people or organizations that exist outside an Exchange organization. Each mail contact has an external e-mail address and all messages sent to the mail contact are routed to this external e-mail address. Mail contacts can appear in the Global Address List (GAL) and other address lists, and can be added as members to distribution groups.
You should not create a mail-enabled security group. Mail-enabled security groups are also security principals that can be used to distribute messages as well as to assign permissions. Mail-enabled security groups do not use recipient filters and conditions to derive their membership.
You should not create a mail-enabled public folder. A mail-enabled public folder is a public folder that has an e-mail address. When you mail-enable a public folder, users can post messages to the folder, send e-mail messages to the folder, and sometimes receive e-mail messages from the public folder. A mail-enabled public folder does not use recipient filters and conditions to derive their membership.
