Aye, multiple users is ok, and it looks like we'll have to go down that route.
Anyway, it isn't just file shares. Most departmental DLs are managed by more than one user and it's easier to use a DL that customers can update rather than come to the IT team when they want to add/remove authorised senders or list editors. But since you asked... the DLs are added to the ACL of shared home directory space in some circumstances, allowing departments to control access to that resource. Thanks Michael.

I filed a request for it to be changed for v.Next, but I won't find out whether the team listened until the same time other beta testers will. You CAN add multiple users to managedBy in Exchange 2010. That wasn't possible in Exchange 2007. How do you use this for controlling access to file shares? There may be another way to accomplish what you want. Regards, Michael B.

All, We've just found a really serious problem with Exchange 2010. It seems that you cannot add another DL to the "managedBy" property for a DL. We use this extensively here for controlling access to file shares. managedBy works fine if you just want to add a mailbox user etc. Is this by design or is there some switch we can flick to allow us to do this?
