can no longer add users to distribution groups after migrating to Exchange 2013
I have migrated all of our Exchange 2010 mailboxes to Exchange 2013. The old Exchange 2010 servers still exist as they have yet to be decommissioned but they have no mailboxes on them now.
Ever since migrating the user mailboxes to the Exchange 2013 servers, users now get the following every time they try and add members to a distribution group:
I have looked at the Exchange 2013 EAC and can see that the "Default Role Assignment Policy" is assigned to the user mailboxes and the "MyDistributionGroups" role is enabled. The Outlook clients are a mixture of Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 and I get the same problem on both.

Thanks Fox, my distribution groups are already universal groups.
I'm finding it a bit difficult to follow your instructions. I'd like to know how to fix this in Exchange 2013 as I never had this problem when the mailboxes were on the Exchange 2010 servers. I'm also finding it difficult to find a solution in the link you provided. I've checked and I have a Global Catalog in the same domain as the distribution list; and the 'managed by' property in AD is set to the individual user rather than a group.

Apologies, I missed the fact that the groups where users are having a problem are actually security groups in AD and not distribution lists. I have changed the groups to distribution lists and will let you know once the users have re-tested. Thanks.
