Situation
Symptoms:
1) a parent distribution list (DL) contains users and other
distribution lists (children). Despite some of the children DLs
being renamed or deleted, they still show up in the Address Book of
all except the owning Post Office for the parent DL.
2) Syncing the parent DL from within ConsoleOne seems to have
no effect on the non-owning address books.
Changes:
One or more child DLs were renamed previously and that
change never fully synchronized.
Resolution
1) Remove the questionable child/children DLs from the parent
DL via ConsoleOne.
2) Synchronize the parent DL
3) Check a sampling of post office address books to verify the
child DL is no longer there.
4) Add the new child DL name to the address book and
synchronize.
5) Check a sampling of post office address books to verify the
child DL is now correct.
