I want to make an email contact distribution list of hundreds of
email addresses that come to me in an email .How can I do that
without taking each individual email address and assigning it to a
distribution list ?

If the addresses are all in Internet format and are smicolon-separated,
select them all, tight click and choose Copy. The, in Outlook, click
NewDistribution List. Right-click in the field where names get entered
(the label of that field is version-specific and youi didn't share that
information) and choose Paste. Click OK.
