Distribution list error

[Ken W]

I've created a small distribution lists of six people. Whenever I go to send
a message with this distribution list I get the error "Cannot perform the
requested operation. The selected command is not valid for this recipient.
The operation failed." I've tried deleting one recipient at a time to see if
there is a bad e-mail address or something, but it hasn't made a difference.
Does anyone know what is causing this?

Does it work when you start with a completely new distribution list?

Another way to go would be to use categories to group your contacts. It is
much more reliable and gives your greater flexibility.

Yes, I did try to create a new one. If I use categories to group them, how
would I select everyone in that category when writing an e-mail?
