OUTLOOK TIP - Forward a distribution list to another user

What the sender and receiver must have:

  1. Outlook (not Outlook Express) as an Exchange client so you can see the Global Address Book.
  2. The sender already has the distribution list created and saved.

How to Forward the Distribution List:

  • Open the distribution list.
  • On the menu bar, click Actions, then click Forward

  • In the To: box of the message, type the email address of the person you are sending the distribution list to. Note the contact icon at the bottom of the message.
  • Click Send.

How to Receive the Distribution List:

  • The receiver opens the message containing the attached distribution list.
  • Resize and move the message window so you can see Outlook's Contact Bar and the message at the same time. The Contact Bar is on the bottom-left corner of Outlook.
  • In the message, point to the attached Distribution List icon.
  • Drag and drop the Distribution List onto the Contacts folder.
  • Close the message, check the contacts list. The Distribution List appears.
