Default Distribution lists messed up

The Global Address book is stored online so that WGI, CH2M Hill, and Bechtel
National can instantly update rosters at all of their offices. For some
reason, whenever I try to send a message to a distribution list, it just puts
the name of the list in the TO field. Needless to say, that distribution
list is not in the global address book, so I get an error message saying it
does not recognize the name in the address book(as though it thinks "New
Building Group" is a person) and doesn't even look at my contact list for the
members of the list. Is there a way to make it look in my personal contact
list before looking in the global address book?

Clarify your question and state what information store you are using.

I work for a company that uses an online address book. I tried to make a
distribution list, but when I try to send to it, it says "New Building
Group
cannot be found in the address book." Is there a way to make the list
autopopulate the to field with individual e-mails instead of the name of
the
group?
