Hi I'm running WSS 3.0 users authenticate via AD 2k3, I'm trying to
setup a group in AD where i can add all the users as well as new hires,
and have the announcements alert this group. I did a DL at first but
that didn't work so i created a security group with email and added all
staff but when i created a new announcement noone got the alert. any
ideas would be greatly appreciated.

thx
Monica

Hi,

you have to add the e-mail enabled security group to a permission group in
the site collection, site, or list, et
Or add your users per head to the users list for which e-mail alert should
work.
