I've hit the maximum emails in my distribution list and need to divide it in
two lists. The current list is in alphabetical order (A-Z) and I need to copy
the list so that I can have two lists (A-O) and (P-Z). To avoid having to
"re-invent" the second distribution list, I would like to delete P-Z from the
first list and delete A-O from the second list. If this can be done, how do
I do this?

Right-click the DL, drag it a tint distance, then release the mouse button.
Choose Copy. You now have two identically-named DLs. Open the first, and
remove half of the members. Save and close. Open the second, change its
name, and delete the member you did NOT delete from the other copy. Save
and close.
