Clarify your post. Tell us precisely what you did and how your Contacts were
created in the first place. Do not use terms that have no meaning to us like
"contact list." How do we know what you mean by "contact list?" What does
"wont save emails" mean?

Russ..Ok hope this helps, I typed in each email as a new individual contact,
then made DL to add all these same contacts, then saved and closed.
Individually contacts are all there, but when add to DL they simply disappear
next time I open DL. I have other DL's friends, coworkers, family, they work
fine. THX...Robert

State more clearly how you created each Contact. Open one of those Contact
Records and verify that it has a valid, resolved email address. Make sure
you are creating these Contacts in a Contacts Folder that you have enabled
for inclusion in your Outlook Address Book.

Have you thought about using Categories instead of Distribution lists?

What changed between when things worked and when the didn't?
Have you tried any routine repairs like the Inbox Repair Tool and resetting
your address book service?

It sounds like your Outlook Address Book Service may have become corrupt. If
all else fails creating a new profile should put thing back in order.
