User not listed in Domino directory when attempting to email a group with iNotes

iNotes 8.5.1Server: 8.5.1 FP3

Windows 2003 SP2

When I attempt to send an email to a group from iNotes client, the email fails with “User test group (test group@emaildomain.com) not listed in Domino Directory”. Instead of parsing the group and distributing emails to the email addresses listed in the group, the server is attempting to send an email to a literal user on the local domain.

I made sure the email database was refreshed with the latest template (8.5.1 FP3).

This seems like a basic function, so I’m obviously missing something here.

Never mind…

I discovered a setting in the server configuration document under the iNotes tab…

“Name Resolution and Validation” must be set to enabled.
