Email alerts not working for groups

Asked By: Nishita Parekh Date: Jan 22, 2010 Category: MOSS Views: 364

Our environment is MOSS 2007 SP2, one WFE, one index server and a separate SQL
server. SQL mail and SharePoint mail are routed through an exchange server to
our Domino server for delivery.
We have a document library for which I created alerts for myself and 4 AD
Security groups that are email enabled. The alert is delivered to me, but not
the groups.
Exchange server only shows the email as going to me.
How can I get the alerts to work for a group?

Make sure the people in the groups have permissions to the document
library maybe. I have had that happen before...

Have you associated the group with a distribution list?

Be sure to enable security for groups. Alerts does not work for for e-mail
distribution lists.
