Hello all,
I have a question regarding distribution lists. Hopefully I am posting
in the correct newsgroup.
I have created a Contacts public folder. In that folder I have created
contacts with external email addresses. In that folder I have also
created distribution lists that are made up of contacts in that
folder. I have run into a situation when deleting a contact. If I
delete a contact, the information (email address) remains in the
distribution list until I go into the DL and click Update Now. We have
many DL's in that folder and it isn't really feasible for us to
manually click Update Now on all of the DL's. Also is there a way to
search through the DL's for a contact? When I search the Contacts
folder fr a user I only get the contact and not which DL's that user
is a member of.


Thanks.
 
No. That's just one of the reasons I tend to stay away from DLs. They're much too much trouble to maintain.
