Yes, I mean to distribution groups. The client claims that they do a  
lookup in address book, send the email and it never goes anywhere. I  
haven't seen this myself, but I haven't tested it extensively.  It's  
one of these situations where the real consultant brought me in  
because he doesn't know much about the Mac, and kind of dumped this on  
me. Frankly, I wouldn't have chosen Exchange for a small mostly Mac  
office, but that horse has left the stable.
