Before to send an email to a Distribuition List i would like to check if all the contacts that must be in the List, really are in the List.

Ack I forgot to answer this one... Sorry Jamie! It's not a distribution list as you see it, but it's a filtered list of your contacts. I answere this yesterday, so here's a repost. This can be done with a filtered view and mailmerge. It's somewhat difficult to explain, but works. You would basically customize your view to include only the categories you want to send to, and then simply run Tools -> Mail Merge [To e-mail] How to customize views: http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/hfws.aspx?AssetID=HP052430331033&CTT=1&Or igin=EC010230021033&QueryID=40I9DsBW_&respos=2&rt=2 How to mail merge: http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/hfws.aspx?AssetID=HP010361581033&CTT=1&Or igin=EC010230021033&QueryID=r1I9A7YvE0&respos=1&rt=2 Further training (no charge as of this posting): http://office.microsoft.com/training/training.aspx?AssetID=RC011205671033 I use a more advanced trick, but that requires making a video to explain.
