A group naming policy is a template applied to the distribution group names in your Microsoft Exchange organization. As an administrator, there may be times when you need to override the naming policy.

Use the Shell to override the distribution group naming policy

You need to be assigned permissions before you can perform this procedure. To see what permissions you need, see the "Distribution groups" entry in the Mailbox Permissions topic.

Note

You can't use the Exchange Management Console (EMC) to override the distribution group naming policy.

This example creates the distribution group ITDepartment and overrides the naming policy.

New-DistributionGroup -Name "ITDepartment" -IgnoreNamingPolicy

This example changes the name of an existing distribution group and overrides the naming policy.

Set-DistributionGroup -Identity "DL_HRDept" -Name "Department_HR_AllStaff" -IgnoreNamingPolicy

For detailed syntax and parameter information, see New-DistributionGroup and Set-DistributionGroup.
