The Group Manager (Accounts » Groups & Templates... » Group Manager) is used to create account Groups and manage which accounts belong to them. Groups have a number of different uses and functions. For example, using the Group Properties screen you can assign an account template to a Group, allowing you to control a variety of account settings for group members. You can also control whether or not group members have access to WorldClient Instant Messenger and instant messaging. Further, the Content Filter supports groups, allowing you to create rule conditions based on whether or not a message sender or recipient is a member of a specific Group. Finally, for Shared Folders you can assign Access Control List rights to specific Groups, meaning all members of that Group will share those access rights.

You can add accounts to a Group by selecting the Group from the list below and then clicking the "Add or remove accounts..." button. You can also add users to Groups from each user's Mail Folder & Groups screen.
