Default [SOLVED] How do I use Description field in adding to a distribution list?

We use the Description field to identify the type of user.

How to add all users of one "type" to a new distribution list?

are you any good at bash scripting? you should be able to do something like this. say your distribution list is parents. something like this

Code:
#!/bin/bash

for i in `zmprov sa Description=*Parent*`
do
  zmprov adlm parents@domain.com $i
done
I havn't tested this code so I don't know if it'll work it's meant to give you a general idea.
