Unable to send email via the distribution list I just created. The list
displays in the contacts area, but is not recognized when I attempt to send
the list an email. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The distribution list doesn't work because it doesn't esixt under the
"Show Names from the:" drop-down box after clicking the "To..." button
on a new message.

If you want the DL to work when you type the DL name on the "To..."
field:
1) Go to Tools --> E-mail Accounts
2) Select "View or change existing directories or address books" and
click next
3) Then push the "Add..." button and select "Additional Address Books"
4) Select "Outlook Address Book"
5) Restart Outlook and you are can start using your DL like you
normally would!
