Outlook 2003 distribution list drops addressees

[monicag]

Periodically, an email addressed to a distribution list will send to some,
but not all, of the addressees. This happens for more than one user in our
organization, more than one distribution list, and more than one addressee.
The distribution lists have been confirmed to include the missing addressees,
and the problem does not occur with any regularity (for example,
(e-mail address removed) is on the list and receives one email sent to the list, but
not another). When the sent email is viewed, the addressees are actually
missing from the sent email addresses, as opposed to the addressee simply not
receiving the email. Ideas?

Not unusual for DL's. They become corrupt very easily especially if their
members were not all added from the same Folder in which the DL currently
resides. This is one of the many reason few of us rely upon DL's in Outlook.
