This is not true. If you create a DL in the PF everyone will just need to add the folder to their address books. Then they can send to the same DL across the organazation without creating it every time.

Freya: If you use Contacts, even from a public folder, each individual user will need to create the same Distribution List. If you enter the external users as Custom Recipients, then all users will be able to use the same distribution list, and the administrator will only have to update a changed address once. Making the public folder a member of the distribution list will not do what you want.

Thanks, for the quick respons, I tried with the contacts already, because we have the contacts already sitting in a public folder, but that didn't do the job. I made a distributionlist and then said to the public folder that it has to be a member of the distributionlist; Is this correct ?
