Set Permissions for an Address List

By default, your Exchange users can access all address lists. If you want to restrict access to a particular address list, you can change permissions for address list members.

To set permissions for an address list:

1. Start System Manager
   On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click System Manager.
2. In the console tree, double-click Recipients, and then double-click All Address Lists.
3. Right-click the address list for which you want to set permissions, and then click Properties.
4. In the address list Properties dialog box, click the Security tab.
5. To grant a recipient access to the address list, in Name, select a recipient. In Permissions, next to Read permissions, select the Allow check box.
6. To deny a recipient access to the address list, in Name, select a recipient. In Permissions, next to Read Permissions, click to clear the Allow check box.

7. Caution   Due to group membership, you can cause unintended effects when you deny a recipient access to an address list if you select the Deny check box instead of clearing the Allow check box. If you select the Deny check box for a permission, you are denying a permission to an object that may have inherited the permission from its parent.
