Tasks for distribution-group management that can be audited include:

  • A distribution group is created, changed, or deleted.

  • A member is added to or removed from a distribution group.

This subcategory to which this policy belongs is logged only on domain controllers.

Note

Distribution groups cannot be used to manage access control permissions.
