Your question is not clear.
What are "folders containing email addresses?" Do you mean you have several
Contacts Folders containing Contact Records?

Russ, I have folders on my shortcut bar in Outlook, these folders contain
groups of email addresses .. I'm trying to move them,individually by folder,
to make a new distribution list, can that be done?

There is no way to import data directly into a DL, only into Contacts.
I still don't understand what you mean by "folders of email addresses." I
assume you are referring to some sort of file outside your Outlook Data
File?

In my shortcuts, I have folders, in each folder I have contact info
(addresses), when I want to send the group an email I open that folder and
select all addresses, then action a new message to contact .. this was the
only way I could import and export those particular groups to others in my
office .. now I want to try to take those shortcut folders and move the names
into a distribution list, can it be done?
