Hi, i can't seem to find a way to import a distribution list from Excel or Csv in Outlook 2011.

Do you know if that's possible?

Thanks

Customizing toolbar in PC Outlook was so simple and useful. In Mac, I've learned that is not the case. I was able (with help from this site) to learn how to create a Distribution List which essentially can send emails to one specific person or a group of persons. However, I have to hunt for it in my Contacts list. 

Can I create a button/shortcut to this created Distribution List on my main toolbar?
Hello everyone,
I work for consulting company and we are opening new to the 365 Office concept. I have set up a team site for our company were we can all exchange files and have access to whatever folder we are synced to. This is all working fine n' dandy till I started on another companies site. I have set up 1 team site for the small company with multiple folders ranging from administrator's folder to remote site folders. 

Now here is the issue: I would like to be able to control (preferably by group) who has access to parent folders as well as sub-folders. I have make (under users and groups in skydrive site) distribution lists (which typically are for e-mail.) Is there a way to make security groups? I am using the web interface as of right now. I have googled ALOT but Skydrive/Sharepoint/365 seem to change quite often. So far I noticed a very jagged permissions system if you click, "...." in a folder then "Advanced" then monkey around till you find manage permissions. My distribution lists see to show up in this but I have no way of editing individual folders/sub-folders. It just seems like a pain to figure out, I can edit what permissions each distribution list has (full control, edit, write, ect) just as a general permissions for the entire group. How to I apply these permissions with a security group and apply them for parent folders and sub-folders or even how do I control them on a per-person permission basis? The folders are all hosted on 1 site.

Thanks,
-Michael

Using Outlook 2007 still.  Distribution list does not appear as a choice in the drop down box when creating an email.  Going to the contact list, there it is with all the members.  How do I get it to appear as a choice in the drop down?  Other lists appear.  I have deleted it and recreated it.  I have closed Outlook and even rebooted.  Same thing - no choice appears for the list.

I'd appreciate any help.

How do I establish and maintain my own distribution lists under my own domain in Outlook.com/live.com environment?
  • I am looking for something similar to Google Groups, where I can establish an e-mail adress such as everyone(a)mydomain.com and have e-mails to that adress automaticlly forwarded to one or more other adresses.
  • The Skydrive solution does not work as I cannot establish adresses in my own domain
  • The forward solution in account does not work as it can only forward to one other account (enabling the option to forward to multiple recipients  would solve my problem.).

Thanks

I help manage a group distribution list and emails on an outlook account we set up for managing volunteers on a rota and other bits.

 

I recently deleted some volunteer emails (few weeks back now) from the main distribution list created. Whenever I send out emails to the current DL, these recipients are still getting the emails. Even though they visibly do not show or exist in the Dist list. I have even opened up the DL in the 'to' box to double check their emails don't exist, and they don't. But when my emails are sent, they still appear in the list of recipients. This is most frustrating not only for us as an admin team but also for the recipients. It's also a pain as the only other way is to select each individual and we have over 60 volunteers on our list.

 

Also want to prevent confidential information getting to volunteers who are no longer with the organisation.

 

Please can someone advise if they have experienced the same and how they managed to clear the problem.

 

I'm beginning to think it's a bug in MS Outlook but don't know where to file this as a fault.

 

Any advice welcome.

 

Thanks

Hi

I've been online for 2 days trying to figure out this issue. I'm trying to manage the members of a exchange distribution list without having to go into the OWA. I was wondering if there's a way to do this off of outlook itself on the mac.

Many thanks in advance

Hello,

 

I am using Outlook 2011.  There is a distribution list in active directory window server which i am the owner of the group (IS-US).  There are 5 members in it.

With Outlook PC, I can just go to calendar, open calendar from address book, and view those 5 members' calendar.

 

However in Mac Outlook, permission is denied when openning it up from "Open Calendar"

 

Can anyone help fixing this issue?

 

Thank you so much.

Regards,

Dipo

I'm used to gmail where you can make that an email sent to *** Email address is removed for privacy *** goes also to *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. I'm managing my domain email using outlook.com and it work but I'm not able to setup a distribution list. I've seen the group feature but I'm not reaaly able to understand how can I send an email to *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and be sore that this email is sent to all group members.

Thanks!
