Email a distribution list
Outlook 2003
Hello. I emailed a distribution list as an attachment to someone who is also using Outlook 2003/Exchange server. I attached the list using the Item choice when I click on the Insert a File toolbar button drop-down list. The problem is when they receive the email the attachment shows up as a message attachment and when they open the attachment there is nothing inside it and it appears like an attached email message and not a contact attachment. I have tried sending it in HTML and Rich Text formats but the results have not changed. Thanks for any input you can provide.

Outlook versions Insert Item is not in the same place as Insert File. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "JeffreyBee" wrote in message ... Outlook 2003 Hello.

The DL was created in the Contacts folder by clicking on the New drop-down
list and selecting Distribution list. Word 2003 is my default email editor. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: How was this DL created and in what information store?

Email a distribution list
Have you made sure the recipient isn't set to receive in plain text? Was
this DL created in your current Contacts Folder or moved there from an earlier installation? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "JeffreyBee" wrote in message ...

The DL was created in my current Contacts folder.
How would I check to see if the recipient is set to receive in plain text? "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Have you made sure the recipient isn't set to receive in plain text?
