I have tried assigning a person as "Managed By", and it works well for me. Have you configured the groups as Universal Distribution.

I got around this by adding the owner to the security tab of the distribution list object, and granting them Write permission. -----Original Message----- From: mkasper@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mkasper@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 9:15 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Managing Distribution List in E2K http://www.MSExchange.org/ Created a distribution group with someone designated in the Managed By tab. This person is not allowed to change membership of this group through the Outlook client as was formerly allowed in Exchange 5.5 when owner was designated. The following message is received: Changes to the distribution list membership could not be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object. Any assistance with finding a way to allow individuals to perform this function would be appreciated.
