Exchange 2007 - blocking distr. list email
I have just blocked emails from being sent to a large distribution list. Supervisors wanted people to get an email sent back that their email has been blocked and to see their supervisor to get the email sent. Supervisors are authourized to send email to this distribution list.
The problem is that the one email they get back is very large and lists each person on the list with the returned message to see their supervisor after each email address in the list.
Is it possible to have the email sent back with one notice simply saying you can't send to the list and to see the supervisor.

Just learned how to use these points.
How exactly did you set the restriction on the group?

I used a transport rule to only alloe certain people the availability. I then associated a new DSM message.
I am reallt new at this. I followed directions I received from Microsoft TechNet.
It works fine. It restricts to only the authorized people. It is just that the email that is returned to the unauthorized sender is so long and repeats the message for each person in the distribution list.

sorry for the spell in the previous post.
alloe = allow and DSM message = DSN message
alloe = allow and DSM message = DSN message
Any reason you didn't simply place the restriction on the properties of the group itself?

I think it was because I couldn't figure out how to change the DSN message for that particular occurrance any other way. I needed a message that said you can't send to that group and please see your supervisor.
It seemed to have a generic DSN message that simply said your email was undeliverable. I didn't want to change the generic DSN Message because it is used in other situations as well.
