Default Copy Distribution List members

A user typed many members and email addresses into a Distribution List
without clicking the "add to contacts" checkbox. We need to have them in the
Contacts as well, however, so we want to add all these Distribution List
members into the Contacts, but cannot find a way. Please advise.

There is no way other than to save the DL as a format from which you can
then import into your Contacts Folder. Saving as a txt file which you then
convert to CSV seems to work best.

Russ is correct and here's a detailed description of how I've done it:
