Default Distribution List

According to the Help Scrren, when receiving a distribution list through
e-mail from another person, you should just be able to right click the list
from the message header and click Add to Contacts. We have not found that to
be true. We need to open the Distribution list, go to the Office Button,
click Move To (even though its grayed out) and add to contacts folder.
What's up with that and are we missing an update or something to allow that?

Default Distribution List

You provided no details. To do what you want, DL must be sent as an Outlook
Item in an RTF message. Other formats may require you do open and save or
drag and drop.
