In Outlook 2003, I create an rtf e-mail, and insert item from my Contacts
file -- specifically, the DL. Double-click on the icon to confirm that it is, indeed, the DL. It is. Send it. In Outlook 2007, open the e-mail. Click on the attachment. It is a blank e-mail. There is no data. Outlook 2003 uses Microsoft Exchange. Outlook 2007 uses POP/SMTP. I hope this is the information you're looking for.

I've tried this a number of ways, and have sent the message in RTF format with items inserted as DL icons. At the 2003 end, the attachment opens up into a complete DL.

The procedure works for everyone else. In what information store does this
DL reside? What is your answer about AV software? -- Russ Valentine "P. Warren" wrote in message ...

No AV that I'm aware of. Just straightforward e-mail. No scanning.

Out of ideas. Can't repro the problem nor have I seen it reported.

No - recipient (me, at home) has e-mail coming in in rtf.
I guess I'll just have to recreate them. Bummer! Thanks for your help. "Russ Valentine" wrote: Out of ideas. Can't repro the problem nor have I seen it reported.
