A PDL must not contain the MSS broadcast mailbox, the internal fax 
delivery mailbox, and the ELA shadow mailbox. 
Avaya supports up to 999 members (list entries) per PDL, subject to 
system capacity, though no hard limit has been established in the product.
PDL labels and identifiers
A PDL has one or more of the following labels or identifiers:
!
Name
!
Identifier
!
List number (List ID)
!
Recorded list name
Name
A Name, also known as the PDL display name, is a Unicode textual name 
that subscribers can assign a PDL. A PDL Name can contain a maximum 
of 255 characters. 
Subscribers can use the PDL Name when addressing messages from the 
Modular Messaging telephone user interfaces (TUIs). When managing 
PDLs from Subscriber Options, subscribers can use the PDL Name to 
quickly navigate through the PDLs they own.
A PDL Name cannot contain only numerics. A PDL Name need not be 
unique.
When creating PDLs from Subscriber Options, subscribers must assign 
PDL Names. When creating PDLs from the Modular Messaging TUIs, 
subscribers cannot assign PDLs a Name. However, subscribers can use 
Subscriber Options to modify the PDL and assign it a Name.
Identifier
An Identifier is an ASCII name that subscribers can assign to PDLs they 
own. The Identifier is used in the PDL e-mail address syntax 
#[Identifier]@hostdomain.com, when subscribers address messages to a 
PDL from a graphical user interface (GUI) client. 
An Identifier can contain only ASCII characters (0 to 9, a to z, A to Z, _ 
and -) and must be unique across all the PDLs a subscriber owns. If 
subscribers do not provide an Identifier, the system automatically 
generates an Identifier. A system-generated Identifier is the PDL Name 
without any spaces or restricted characters. For example, the Identifier of 
a PDL named ‘Sales Team (3)’ would be ‘SalesTeam3’.
