The role name is the name an administrator uses to log in to a specific role.

Each role name must:

- be unique within a domain

- contain two to 32 letters and numbers (with no spaces, underscores, dashes or other special characters)

- begin with a letter

- have at least one lowercase letter

If you later change this role name in a role properties dialog box, the name of the mailing list associated with this role is automatically changed also.
