About Using Groups to Address Items

A group is a list of users or resources you can send messages to. Use groups to send a message to several users or resources by typing the group name in the To, BC, or CC text boxes. There are two types of groups: public and personal.

A public group is a list of users created by the system administrator. It is available for use by each GroupWise® user. For example, there might be a public group for the Accounting Department. Each employee in Accounting is included in the group. Public groups are listed in the system address book.

A personal group is a group created by you. For example, if you often send an appointment to your work group, you can include each co-worker's address or name and a meeting place (a resource) in a personal group.

Groups are marked with the Group Icon icon, and are displayed in both the left and right panes of the open address book.
