Exchange 2010 – updating distribution list members via outlook address book

active-directoryexchange-2010outlookwindows-server-2008

I'm having trouble updating distribution list memberships using outlook.

on exchange 2010:
groups properties – group information
I have added myself to the managed by list

in active directory (server 2008)
my account is set to the name under the managed by tab inside the groups properties
I have also given myself full control under the security tab in the a/d properties

However,

  • In outlook if I go to tools

  • addressbook double click the group

  • modify members

    I am told that i do not have sufficient permissions to perform the action

anyone have any idea why this may be ?

thanks

Looks like that is actually a bug that is worked around by using the Manage-GroupManagementRole.ps1 script. It can be found here. You can read more about the issue here.
