Reconstructing Deleted Distribution List

[Barry]

Somehow a Distribution List with over 200 emails addresses was deleted from
my contact list. They are all contained in a bcc copy of my weekly
newsletter that was sent out Monday. I have tried to "select all" and "copy"
the email addresses from the sent email, then create a new Distribution List,
then paste in the names/email addresses of the recipients. I have been able
to select all and copy, but have not found a way to past them into the new
distribution list.

Thanks Diane,

The email addresses are not in the address list. When I created the
Distribution Lists, I would just add the names and email addresses directly
into the DL. The only place that all of them remain is in sent emails. It
seems there should be a way to copy all of the email addresses from an email
and dump them into a DL. Any ideas? Thanks.

use the method on the page I posted earlier. open the sent message, copy the
addresses (select and copy right from the address field) and paste into the
DL's member field as described on the page.
