Log into https://admin.myhostedexchange.com with your administrative username and password, which you received in your Welcome Message.
Mouse over the Services icon and select Exchange à Distribution Groups.
Click on the New Distribution Group icon on the left hand side of the screen.

When the Distribution Group Details expands, click on the Find button in the Add Group Members section.
This will display a list of all mail-enabled users. Check the boxes next to the names of the users you want to add to this distribution group and click Add.

Next you will add an email address for this list by clicking the Add button in the Distribution Group E-Mails section.
In the name field you can now enter the email address you would like the new distribution group to have and click on Update.
If you want to limit who can send to this list or give users Send-As permissions, click on Advanced Settings.
To assign Send-As Permissions, just click on Find to display a list of users.
Check the box of the users you would like to have Send-As permissions and click Add.
To restrict who can send to this list, click on Find in the Send Restrictions section.
Check the box next to the name of the users who you do not want to be able to send mail to this list and click Add.
