How to remove a contact from a group

R

Ram

I have created a group in my contact list. Recently I removed one person from
my email list as well as from my group list.

However when I send emails using group list, this person still fremains ion
the list.

How can I remove a contact?

Thanks

Outlook does not use groups - Outlook Express does. Outlook uses
Distribution lists.

Open the Distribution list and highlight the member you want to remove and
select remove.

If this person is a delegate for someone on an Exchange server, they will
still get the item even though you have removed them from teh DL.

Sorry ... it is distribution list and not a group
Person is not a delegate...

I deleted as suggested.. however when I send an email addressed by
distribtion list... the deletged person also get the email.

I tried again with a different contact but with the same results.

I don't mean is that person a delegate. I mean does anyone still on that
distribution list have that person as a delegate on THEIR mailbox?

No one has this distribution listas a delegate on THEIR mailbox.

I think the problem was due to "auto fill". I deleted the distribution list
from autofill and added again. Everything is fine.

Thanks
