The Select members dialog does precisely that. It shows you the individual
addresses that you might want to add to the DL, not the Contacts.
Importing from mobile device is quite unlikely to have created valid
Contacts.

Imported data from MobileMe (so I sync an iPhone with the PC). Point is
yes,
I have a folder(??) called Contacts under the My Contacts tab. I have it
syncing well with MobileMe. I can send emails just fine. Since MobileMe
has
tabs for different email addresses (e.g.: Home, Work, Other, custom, etc.)
they translate to E-mail, E-mail 2, E-mail 3, etc. The Distribution List
builder function only seems to want to look at the first E-mail field [in
the
contact information] and if it doesn't have an email address there, it
won't
add it to the list (even though there is a valid address in the 'E-mail 2'
field. So, is there anyway around this short of screwing up my other
application syncs (Mac, iPhone, MobileMe, Gmail Contacts) by having to
re-do
my contacts and put home email addresses into the work email address
fields
(mapped to 'E-mail') ?

Let me put this another way... If you have multiple email addresses in
one
contact, is there a way to choose the one(s) you want to use on a
Distribution List?

Thanks in advance...

You have provided no necessary information. So you just "installed"
Outlook
2007. Since you appear already to have a "Contacts Folder," are we to
assume
you migrated data to this new installation? If so, how? How did you
configure the Outlook Address Book Service in this new installation?

I have just installed Outlook 2007.
I have a Contacts folder with many contacts that I'd like to add to a
Distribution List.
When creating the list, I click on the select members button.
I add members by double clicking on the members name, or clicking the
'Members -' button. Members names are added to the list underlined.
When I
have selected all of my members, I click the 'OK' button in the dialog
box.
NONE of the members I selected show up in the Distribution List window
unless
they have a primary E-mail address. The problem is that most of my
contacts
have an 'E-mail 2' or 'Email-3' address (Home as opposed to work). How
do
I
get people with only an Email-2 or Email-3 address to show up in a
Distribution List?
