Working with groups

You can use groups as distribution lists in Amazon WorkMail for receiving emails for generic email addresses, such as <sales@example.com> or <support@example.com>. You can create multiple email aliases for a group.

You can also use groups as security groups to share a mailbox or calendar with a certain team.

Groups don't have their own mailboxes, and that affects the mailbox permissions that you can grant to a group. For information about setting up mailbox permissions for a group, see Managing mailbox permissions for groups.
