Change or delete a distribution group
You can make changes to the distribution group or you can delete the distribution group altogether. You can add a new member, change ownership, change permissions, change the group name, delete the group altogether, and more.
Note: You don't need to be an administrator to make changes to your distribution group, but there are some tasks that only admins can perform. For example, only admins can grant membership access to people outside your organization by creating them as shared contacts. See your admin for more information.
