Default imported distributions lists show as contacts

Client exported his Contacts containing several Distribution Lists,
then imported into a new system. Teh imported DL's show up as
separate Contact Lists...how, why, and more importantly, is there a
simplified way to correct?

Version of Outlook they were exported from and imported into? How did you
import them?

DL's are among the many items that do not survive import and export. You
need to use a correct method for transferring Outlook data. We post them
