# Create or Modify a List for Mailbox Owners

To add members or delete members in a single distribution list, or a master distribution list:

1. From the Main Menu, select (M) Mailbox Maintenance, and then (L) List Maintenance.

2. Select (C) Create, Modify, or Show Distribution Lists.

3. At the Mailbox: prompt, enter the n umber of the mailbox that contains the list you want to add to or delete from. To modify a master distribution list, enter the administrator’s mailbox.

4. At the Distribution List: prompt, enter the n umber of the list you want to add to or delete from (1-99). For mailboxes that rotate on full, tree mailboxes, NP Forms mailboxes, and broadcast mailboxes, specify 1. For a name greet mailbox, specify 9.

5. At the (S)orted or (U)nsorted list ? prompt, select U if the list is in a tree mailbox OR S for all other types of mailboxes. Keep in mind that sorting of lists longer than 190 members can be slow.

6. At the Check for duplicate before add (y/n) [Y]? prompt, enter Y if you want the server to make sure the member is not already in the list, or N to bypass the check.

7. At the (A)dd, (D)elete, or (S)how list ? prompt, select A to add a member, or D to delete a member.

8. At the Member: prompt, enter the member you want to add or delete. All of the following are valid members:

9. Mailbox number

10. M and a remote mailbox with a telephone number for AMIS Analog; the remote mailbox and telephone number are separated by a comma (for example, M3788,4283788)

11. N and a remote mailbox for networking

12. T and a telephone number for off-server messaging

13. D and a distribution list number, except in a broadcast mailbox

14. S and a master distribution list number, except in a broadcast mailbox

Mailbox numbers can be entered in any of the formats shown below; the other numbers must be entered one at a time:

- A single mailbox number, for example, 3788

- A continuous range of mailbox numbers, for example, 3001-3788

- A series of mailbox numbers, for example, 3781,3782,3786,3788

You can mix formats of mailbox number entries, so you can specify all the mailbox numbers necessary in one attempt. For example, this entry is valid: 208,222-308,333,334,661

1. After the server confirms that the member just specified was added or deleted, continue adding or deleting or complete the activity. At the (A)dd, (D)elete, or (S)how list ? prompt, do one of the following:

2. To add or delete more members from the current list, enter A or D as described in step 7.

3. To complete adding or deleting members, press Enter. When the server asks if you want to save changes to the distribution list, press Y. The server reports the current members, reflecting members just added or deleted, and your additions and deletions are saved.
