autofill distribution list

[Guest]

I've never worked w/ distribution lists before. I found a distribution list
in Contacts called Executiv Committee. When drafting a new e-mail message to
send to all the people on this committee, I begin typing the distribution
list's name in the "To:" box and autofill takes care of the rest. I decided
to create another distribution list called ISI Task Force and placed it in
contacts along w/ the Executive Committee distribution list. When I start
typing this distribution list in the "To:" box it does not autofill like the
executive committee list. What am I doing wrong?

Nothing.
Until you have sent a message to this DL it won't appear in your
autocompletion cache. Autocompletion has nothing to do with your Contacts.
It only uses your autocompletion cache.
