I have a group in my public NAB that I want to hide from public view. I want people to still be able to email to it but not able to open it and view who’s in it unless they are an administrator. I know there is a way to do it but for the life of me I can’t remember. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gail

You could create a $Readers field and put the name of your admin group and localdomainservers in it. They wouldn’t see it that way. You’d have to test to see if they could mail to it.

There is a different way to perform that without having to change the design by adding a Readers Field.
Into the document properties of the group, select the key symbol tab and in the ‘Who can read this document’, select only the people/groups and almost servers that can read it.
Let’s enjoy

For those Reading this NOW…things have changed…pls read the technote below
Problem
In Notes R5, certain groups have Readers list restrictions enforced so that internal users cannot select one of these groups from the Domino Names & Address Book. The primary purpose of these groups is to receive internet mail.
After an upgrade from Notes R5 to Notes R6, internet messages are returned with the following error message:
Router: Unable to deliver message 005A00E7 to mjones@dyn941115169.austin.xxxx.com
Not authorized to send mail to this user or group.
In Notes releases before 6.0.3, Readers list restrictions are enforced by the router so messages from random internet users are all rejected. Adding Anonymous to the Readers list has no effect.

This issue was reported to Lotus software Quality Engineering and was fixed in Notes Release 6.0.3. The field, RouterDisableReadersField=1, was added to the NOTES.INI file. This allows the router to ignore Readers list restrictions.
