Outlook 2003 DL Problems

[jkegley]

I am having a problem with Distribution Lists in Exchange 2003 and Outlook
2003. I get the error stated in this KB:

"Distribution list is too large to save on your network e-mail server."

As we see in this KB:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;238569

The solution is to "nest" DL's.

This article is for Outlook 2002, not 2003? Is this still a problem in 2003?

I posted a question but did not get a answer. The question came back to me. I
clicked on the question below. Bottom line, I do not know how to participate
in the discussion group. Would someone explaine. Your help will be greatly
apprecited. I was able to convert my Contact list in Outlook 2003 into
LastName first, First Name second. However, the distribution lists did not
convert. How do I convert a distribution list into LastName first FirstName
secong. The question I posted came back in my E-mail but not the answer. Your
help will be greatly appreciated.

Outlook provides no control for how DL's are sorted.

DLs in all versions of Outlook work the same -- rather poorly, at least in contrast to most people's expectations.
