SYMPTOMS
========

When Microsoft Exchange Server is installed on a Member Server, you can add
Local Groups on the permissions lists but users from this group will not be
granted permissions.

MORE INFORMATION
================

In Microsoft Exchange Administrator, you can select individual accounts, global
groups, or Local Groups. The three options will work when Microsoft Exchange is
on a PDC or BDC. Only individual accounts and/or global groups will work when
Microsoft Exchange is running on a Member Server.
