Hello,

How other other admins of SLOX systems using the groups and shared 
folders? The reason i ask is, until today i have created a group and 
then created a shared folder and associated the group with the folder to 
make a distribution list of sorts. But i'm not sure there are any 
advantages to making a distribution list that way over just making a 
shared folder and then directly associating the users with the folder? 
If there are i'd love to hear why? And a question i get often is how can 
they see the shared folder that have email addresses to know to email 
them? They shared folders with email addresses do not seem to be listed 
under users contacts.

If not using the groups to associate with the shared folders what real 
purpose does the groups serve then? Since this is the only way we have 
been usign them at our company, i wonder what other people user their 
groups to do?

And why would you setup an account to to store email in a shared folder? 
Does that folder then store the email in it like an IMAP account? And 
can you control whether some users delete or move email in that shared 
folder? How does it work having several people accessing the email in a 
shard folder?

If anyone can tell me a little more about how they use these features 
and what their impressions of them, i would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
