one or more members of this distribution list cannot be found

I have created a distribution list, obviously being sent to a group of
people. I'm working in outlook 2003. My problem is that when I try to
update the list by clicking on the "Update Now" button at the top right and I
get the message, "one or more members of this distribution list cannot be
found," and choose "remove the lost members," or "try to repair the lost
members and remove only those which cannot be found," nothing seems to happen.

I can choose either of those two options, click "ok" and same the
distribution list; go back into it and hit "Update Now" again and you would
think it would be already updated, but the message appears again, "one or
more members..."

why is it not updating the addresses? The reason I'm desperate to fix this
is because someone that used to be in that list keeps receiving an email, but
I've already deleted their address to stop this, but she keeps receiving it.
I'm thinking the two problems are connected.

Help anyone?

Unfortunately, I have yet to see a single user for whom "Update Now" does
what it is supposed to.
DL's rarely work as expected for very long, so most of us avoid using them.
I've never found any solution for these problems. Hopefully someone else has
and will post it here.
