I have a distribution list created...I want to set one of my email accounts
to auto forward all incoming messages to the distribution list. However
whenever I select the distribution list, it tells me this is not allowed and
asks if I want to insert the contacts instead.

I would like to forward to the distribution list, so the email's will not
show up.

How can I go about this?

thanks

Is this a GAL-based DL or one from your Contacts folder?

There's no way that an autoforward rule can put the addresses in the Bcc
field, so there's no way to hide the addresses unless you use a vba script
to create the forwarded message.

Any example's of that anywhere for VB script and forwarding?

I figured this was the course of action.

Thanks for the help thus far.

The best place for VB examples if http://www.outlookcode.com/ . I don't
know if they have this particular example there, however.
