Outlook does not recognize distribution group

Hi,
When I email to a distribution group from my contacts I get the message
"Outlook does not recognize "distribution group name" I am using Outlook
2003. Not sure what I'm missing but it did use to work OK. I can send to the
other contacts - it's just the distribution groups that don't work.
thanks

Can you send to other distribution lists?
The distribution list could be broken. Try recreating it.

In Outlook we create Distribution LISTS. When you say
"distribution groups" are you talking about a Phone created
group that you email to?

How are you addressing your emails to a distribution list?
Does it work when you select it via the Address Book by pressing the To...
button when composing your email?
