Exporting "Windows mail" to Outlook -Distribution list missing ema
A Vista user has their contacts (including distribution lists). When
exporting the contacts and importing in Outlook, they all show up however all of her Distribution lists are void of any email addresses. How can distribution lists be easily imported into Outlook from Windows mail?

Exporting "Windows mail" to Outlook -Distribution list missing ema
