How can I Add/Remove users in Active Directory and reflect that on certain distribution lists?

I'm running MS Exchange on Windows 2003 Platform. I actively add/remove users from AD and have to edit certain distribution lists over and over.

Is there a way to set up Active Directory so when I add/remove users, it will reflect on certain distribution lists so I don't forget?

The simplest solution is to use Query Based Groups...

RUS stands for the Recipient Update Service..  you will find it listed in your Exchange System Manager.. It is what generates your email addresses when a user is created and updates your address lists. The links the person provided above are a good source of info if you are new to this
