MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / December 2004My distribution lists in outlook contacts have disappeared suddenl
Yesterday my distribution lists were in outlook contacts and today they are gone. Third time this has happened...any ideas? I hate to keep recreating them.  SignatureMarketmaster You've provided no clues. Most of us do not use DL's because they are not reliable. There are no confirmed reports of their simply disappearing for no reason, however. You must have at least some clue. SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Yesterday my distribution lists were in outlook contacts and today they > are > gone.

Nothing extraordinary happened in prior day shutdown or restart, no one else used the computer, no error messages, no crashes, nada. Except for the disappearing act, I've had no probs w/DL's. I tried detect and repair, but no help. I'm thinking virus? Heard of any that deletes DL's periodically? If you do not use DL's, what do you use? > You've provided no clues.

What information store, PST or Exchange mailbox? How did you create the DL's and are they based on Contacts in your Contacts Folder? Did you check your Deleted Items Folder? Most of us use categories or separate Contact subfolders to group Contacts more reliably. SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] >I wish I did have a clue. (Office xp, by the way).
