+ | =====Editing a group===== | ||
+ | To edit a group, you can just use the controls in the group table. | ||
+ | Some of the controls are three-state checkboxes. In these cases, if the checkbox is checked as normal, then all members in the group will be made to have this setting set; if the checkbox is clear, then all members will be made to have this setting unset, and if the checkbox is greyed, then all members in the group can have their own individual setting (that particular setting is not affected by the group configuration). | ||
+ | |||
+ | The settings are described below: | ||

+ | * **Enabled** - if the group is Enabled, then the group members can access their accounts. If the group is not Enabled, then the group members cannot access their accounts (but incoming mail to the users will still be delivered to their mailboxes).

+ | * **Max Outgoing Size** - if this option is set to 0 (zero), then there is no group limit on the size of messages, but if it is set to a non-zero value, then that is the maximum outgoing message size that the group members can send (in kB). This does not limit internal messages, just outgoing ones | ||
