User groups and their use are focused in the manual.
New groups can be defined under Groups. The button opens a simple configuration wizard:
In the General dialog, define a name for the new group. You can use any name, but we recommend to define a short name which clearly reflects purpose of the group.
Another entry to be specified is Description. It is optional, recommended to use for better reference especially if you create many groups. Good descriptions make group lists well organized and easy-to-use.
The E-mail Addresses dialog allows setting of group address(es). You can set any number of address. There is also the option of no address assigned to the group (unlike user accounts, the group address is not created automatically from the group name and domain where the group is defined).
In the Users dialog box, you can add existing users to the group. Simply click on and select users.
In the Rights dialog, you can set access rights for KMS Web Administration.
In Advanced Settings, you can set two group features:
This option narrows communication of the group to local level only. This can be useful for internal communication settings in many companies. Users will not be able to send emails to any other domain or to the Internet.
If you are not sure why this option should be checked, leave it disabled. This option restricts sending of email out of the company and it is helpful only if you need to keep extremely strict communication rules across the company.
This option can be checked if the group's email address is defined. Its checking adds the all contacts of the group to the public contacts folder.
Any items of a group can be changed easily, apart from the group name. To change settings, click on the Groups.
button in the lower part of sectionThe button opens a dialog with various tabs where particular settings can be changed. If not sure about any option, read their descriptions in Creating new groups.
