Hi @shabbir5 
When you add a dl to the Group Mail field in the notification, the notification will be sent to all members of the DL.
If a group member is also part of the DL, they will receive the notification both through the dl and the group mail, potentially causing duplicate notifications.
If the group member is not part of the DL they will only receive the notification via the group. The grp mail field in the Group table is used to send notifications to the entire group or a DL. To prevent duplicate emails, enable or disable the "Include Group Members" option in the DL configuration according to your requirement, which ensures that members who are already in the DL won't receive the notification twice.

Kindly mark it correct and helpful if it is applicable.

Thanks,

Raj
