how to forward a distribution list in outlook

**Maggie D** · February 27th 06, 10:35 PM posted to microsoft.public.outlook.contacts

I am able to forward distribution lists to other folks on campus. When I try
to send a list to someone outside the company, the attachment is blank when
they open it. I try to open it before i send the list and it works just
fine.

Why must I select 2 lists to attach to light up the copy function on the
shortcut menu?

To send a DL you must be sending to other Outlook users. Do not forward it.
Attach it as an Outlook item to an RTF message.
