Problem Definition:
Zimbra provides the ability to use a distribution list, that allows you t add members to the list, and when you send mail to the distribution list, zimbra picks all the members and sends the same mail to all the members. This allows you to easily do group mailing or department wise mailing in a company. Zimbra admin panel does not allow you to list/download all the members in one page and download them. One option available from admin panel is to go to the details of the distribution list email address and from the Member pane, you may download the first page of the list. But the page does not allow you to move on. How can we download all the members of distribution list in Zimbra in one command?
