Diane,
I just realized that you were asking me if the list name came up in the
autocomplete list. It was. I deleted it from the autocomplete list. Then I
opened the distribution list and clicked on the create email icon. The list
addresses were correct.
Thank you for the solution. I didn't realize that the autocomplete list was
saving the individual addresses in my distribution list, which apparently it
was. This has been driving me crazy. Thanks again.

I have a distribution list with about 30 names. All these names are also
contacts. From time to time I need to update the email address of some of
the
contacts on this list. First I update the contact information. When I
look
at the list of contacts in my distribution list I see the updated email
address. However, when I send an email to the list, the old, deleted,
address is inserted into the address line. I have tried deleting the
contact
from the list, clicking on update, and closing the list. Then I add the
contact fresh. The same thing happens. The list displayed when I click
on
the distribution list shows the correct information, which is the
information
in the contact record. But when I create an email the old, deleted,
information is inserted. How can I clear this up? I don't understand why
Outlook keeps sending emails using old information when I see the updated
information in the contact record. This is an important distribution list
and it is causing problems that new members are not getting emails, and
other
emails are bouncing back because they are being sent to obsolete
addresses.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I appreciate any help in clearing this up.
