   \Agents

  3. Create a new DWORD value with the name ActionForInvalidDL and set its value to one of the following:

    (Default) If a distribution list is invalid, continue to process the remainder of the recipient list.

    1

    If a distribution list is invalid, stop processing the recipient list.
