also known as Is-Member-Of-DL

The back-link Active Directory computes from group membership, so you read it but cannot write it. Two gotchas bite everyone: it leaves out a user's primary group, and it lists only direct memberships unless you walk the chain with the 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941 matching rule. Treat it as a convenience, not the source of truth for who is in what.
