If you have created Categories you have no need for nor should you use DL's.
DL's are so dysfunctional almost everyone has abandoned them.

I am a member of multiple local organizations in which I would like to
e-mail
groups of other members. When I click on the "to" in my new e-mail it
brings
up lists of different named contact groups that I have. I want to form
different email groups based on the categorie they are in but can not seem
to
do that. i have tried to form a new distribution list which does not allow
me
to see the categorie tab in the "select Members" window.

How do I form email groups by categorie so when I click on "new E-mail"
and
then on "to..." it would allow me to choose from other lists I create? If
this is not clear please ask and I will try to explain it better.

Thank you so much for any help you can give.
