Default distribution lists

hi

I have to built an 80 person distribution list - I have a list of the
address (all at the same domain) is there an easy way of doing this without
having to add them one by one ?

Add them where? You say you have a distribution list. That means it's
already in Outlook's Contacts folder because that's where DLs are stored.
Or do you actually mean you have a list iof addresses that you want to use
to create an Outlook Distribution List? If the latter, in what format is
the list of addresses you have?

I have created the distribution list in outlook with 1 entry. and I have an
rtf file of a list of address I need to add. Is there a mechanism to do so ?

You can "import" into a DL in only one fashion, as far as I can tell. If
you have a list of addresses separated by semicolons, you can open the DL,
click Select Members, and in the "Members" field, paste that
semicolon-separated list, clicking OK after the paste.
