office 2007 - deleted distribution list.
 

I seem to DELETE my personal Distribution List when I try to update a user.
I am a little frustrated, as I want to DELETE a user, who is not updating
from my normal contacts. I have a contact. and I want to
update them as their contact is now but it doesn't reflect in
my Per. Dist. List. I go in and try to DELETE that user, and ADD that user,
but silly me, I AUTO DELETE IMMEDIATELy, well where is the UNDO or ARE YOU
SURE feature? It goes away and I can't recover it. Where is my deleted
Personal Distribution List and can it automatically link to my contacts in my
Contacts list in Outlook and then see that they have CHANGED when I do that
UPDATE CONTACTS button, which doesn't seem to do anything.
Thank you.

If you deleted the DL, then it should be in your Deleted Items folder.

The Update Contacts button is long known to be not very useful. That's just one reason among many that we Outlook MVPs generally recommend avoiding DLs except possibly for very small, static lists.
