MOVE CONTACTS FROM DL TO CONTACT LIST?

[William]

2003/XP

I received a DL via email. When I drag it to my contacts folder, it appears
as the DL. Is there a way to move the individual contacts in the DL into the
contacts folder as individual contacts, rather than grouped together as a DL?

Thanks,

William

Save the DL as a text file, which will create a Tab-Separated Values file.
Use Excel to convert that to a Comma-Separated Values file and import it into
your Contacts folder.

No. You didn't receive any Contacts. DL's are only names and addresses in a
list. You'd have to create contacts by saving the DL as a file you could
import.

Save the DL as a csv and import it. You'll need to edit it in notepad or
excel before importing.
