Hello,

I was wondering if there would be any repercussions from removing the default groups in my installation of Alfresco ( GROUP_ALFRESCO_ADMINISTRATORS and GROUP_EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS ).

I see that the admin group can be found in authority-services-context.xml and after ommitting the group from the list of adminGroups, the users in this group lose the admin rights. Is this the only effect of removing this group?

As for the EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS, I haven't been able to find the config file that assigns any sort of privileges but I am unsure if deleting it will bring any sort of repercussions I don't know about.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could fill me in or point me to the right direction. Thank you.

EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS group is solely used to determine which users are allowed to send mails to a node in alfresco, in other words if you're not planning on using the inbound mail feature of Alfresco, then deleting it shouldn't cause a problem.
