Manage Distribution Groups URL update in Microsoft Outlook on the web points to the new Microsoft Exchange Admin Center

Microsoft Outlook on the web is slated to update the URL for managing distribution groups to point to the new Exchange Admin Center, with the old URL still functioning until mid-2024. However, non-admin users will be directed to the Exchange Admin Center to manage distribution groups, while admins can continue to manage these groups in the Exchange Admin Center through Recipients > Groups > Distribution list. The rollout will begin in early April 2024 and complete in early May 2024.

This change impacts only users who interact with distribution groups through Outlook on the web, and organizations that manage distribution groups via PowerShell cmdlets or an in-house portal will not be affected. There is no admin action required for this update as it will happen automatically, and users are advised to consult the article on managing Distribution Groups for more information.

The article Manage Distribution Groups URL update in Microsoft Outlook on the web points to the new Microsoft Exchange Admin Center on the M365 Admin website provides further details on this topic.
