I am writing this post as I was looking for some advice on a good distribution list naming convention. We don't have uniformity in our GAL yet and want to start taking on the massive project of overhauling them and making them uniform.
Here's a little background information:
We are 1 company which we break down into 3 separate regions, west; east; international. We then break each region down into Office which is named after the city it is located in (i.e. Office San Diego). Each office then gets broken down into departments, finance, operations, etc.
I think it would be a good idea to start each distribution list with Dist this way they are all grouped together in the address book and therefore easy to find. After that i'm not sure and open to suggestions.
Obviously if you represent each layer in the name, it can get quite length, ie "Dist Company East New York Finance". Most of us know which office is in which region and we all work for the same company so stating it is obvious. Im just looking for some suggestions.
Thanks!
