Updating multiple distribution lists - why isn't this automatic w.

[Guest]

A contact is included in multiple distribution lists. If I change his e-mail
address, I have to find every d.l. of which he is a member, open, and update
manually. Is there no way to automatically update all lists upon changing the
e-mail address?

Thanks
Tim

No.
You're very lucky if the Update Now button even works. It usually doesn't.

"Update now" works with 03, but not with previous versions. For me, anyway.
Thanks

That's my point. Update Now only works with a DL created in the current
version in the current profile in the same information store.
That's useless.
