Default nobody on my distribution list receives the email?

I have set up a Distribution List in Outlook, but despite the fact I have
saved it and it appears in my address book, when I send an email to it,
nobody in the group receives it. I get an undeliverable message saying one
or more recipients did not receive it. Can anyone explain why?

You probably have at least one corrupt address. This is one of the reasons I
don't use DL's.

Thanks for your quick response. I didn't realise that having a corrupt
address would mean that nodody got the mail! How irritating. Thanks.

Indeed. That's one of the many irritations of DL's. Other ways of grouping
Contacts include categories or separate Contact subfolders. One or the other
may work better for you than DL's.
