Default create distribution list

Are you sure all your recipients are already in your address/contact book?
If so then you are correct it will work correctly. However, half the names
are not in any contact or address book. Therefore all the ones that are get
underlined and those that are not are don't.

Every time this is explain to me I get the same results

I took my last e-mail send and then hit reply to all. All the e-mail
addresses are in two formats either BJenks or
'Andy and Linda Tatum' with a ";" between the
fields. These e-mail address are in the To: field.
If I copy the address anywhere in any format all I get is BJenks;
'Andy and Linda Tatum'
Then Outlook doesn't recognize it and ask if it is under a different
name in the contacts.


I have done this very thing and it worked for me. As long as all the
addresses in the recipient field are resolved (i.e., underlined), it should
work for you as well. Right-click the recipient field and choose Select
All. Then right-click and choose Copy or press CTRL-C. Now, click
FileNewDistribution List. CLick Select Members. Right-click in the
Members field and choose Paste or press CTRL-V. Click OK. That should
populate the DL. with members.
