Default Distribution List inserts old email addresses in email address lin

I have a distribution list with about 30 names. All these names are also
contacts. From time to time I need to update the email address of some of the
contacts on this list. First I update the contact information. When I look
at the list of contacts in my distribution list I see the updated email
address. However, when I send an email to the list, the old, deleted,
address is inserted into the address line. I have tried deleting the contact
from the list, clicking on update, and closing the list. Then I add the
contact fresh. The same thing happens. The list displayed when I click on
the distribution list shows the correct information, which is the information
in the contact record. But when I create an email the old, deleted,
information is inserted. How can I clear this up? I don't understand why
Outlook keeps sending emails using old information when I see the updated
information in the contact record. This is an important distribution list
and it is causing problems that new members are not getting emails, and other
emails are bouncing back because they are being sent to obsolete addresses.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I appreciate any help in clearing this up.
