I posted this under "general" but think it might be
better suited over here...

I tried to add alot fo names to a group contact lastnight
and when I was done it appeared that the group only
contains 10 names!...this is a small amount compared to
how mnay I input.

Is there someway to adjust this or did I do somehting
wrong here?

thanks
Steve

What do you mean by a group contact list? Outlook has no such term.
How did you add these names?

In Outlook Express I went to address book, then to create
a new contact and chose "group"...my intention was to
organize somewhat of a mailing list that would be all
under one name...such as "newsletter"...and then have it
distribute to the addresses I added....

Everything semed fine until I was done and it appeared
that only 10 ofthe addresses remained in the new "group"
when I was done...

I'd like to do this simply for now and I'm looking into
any programs designed for mailing list manipulation for
later on....any help would be great, thanks!

I knew it as soon as I saw the word groups. You're not even using Outlook.
This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
outlook express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x

A good website for information on OE is:
