Does anyone know what a distribution list is?

How do I change contacts in a distribution list using Outlook 2007?

• I don't mind Outlook. It seems to be a reasonable email program to use. However I find it incredibly hard and counter-intuitive to use when it comes to managing contacts. I have a distribution list called "CA Executive". I can't remember how I created it, but obviously did. I now need to add and remove a couple of names, but can't work out how. The help menu is also too hard to follow. Can anyone pls let me know how I make the change? Thanks - Neil

• Answer:

  In Contacts, open the distribution list. Note In list views, distribution lists are marked with . Do one or more of the following: Add an address from an address book or a contacts folder On the Distribution List tab, click Select Members. In the Address Book drop-down list, click the address book that contains the e-mail addresses you want in your distribution list. In the Search box, type a name you want to include. In the Name list, click the name, and then click Members. Do this for each person whom you want to add to the distribution list, and then click OK. Why don't I see the Name list in the Address Book? You may have used the More columns search option the last time that you used the Address Book. To restore the name list view, click Name only next to Search. Add an address that is not in a contacts folder or an address book On the Distribution List tab, click Add New. Type the information for the e-mail address, and then click OK. Delete a name Click the name, and then click Remove.
