I will be sending out a blast fax to over 400 hundred people with Outlook
being the software I will be using.  I want to create a distribution list.  
However, the recipients of this fax are not currently in my contacts
database.  My question is this:  In order for me to create this distribution
list, do I have to add each of this individuals to my contact database prior
to creating this database?  Or, is there some way I can just create this
distribution list?  I know in Lotus Notes there was a way I could creae a
group and just type the email addresses.  Thanks for the assistance.

You don't have to enter an address into your Contacts before adding it to a
DL.  After clicking "Select Members", enter the address(es) in the "Select
Members" field.  Separate multiple adresses with semicolons.  Click OK to
move them to the DL.
