Quick straw poll. What is the accepted wisdom for creating distibution lists which 
involve external contacts outside of your organisation? Ie. You want to roll out the 
following distirbution list to some, many or all of your users within your 
organisation:

Somebody who works here
Somebody else who also works here
A third person who works here
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is it better to devolve this to public folders/shared accounts, create internal 
distribution lists only within an AD structure and allow users to use these as a base 
and create their own distribution lists with external contacts?

Or should you create a subsection of your AD devoted to external contacts and allow 
users to create external contacts here, so that distribution lists can have the 
objects to point to when created in AD? 

My gut feeling is that the latter is a bad option as your AD can quickly fill with out 
of date SMTP addresses and other assorted rubbish, but is my paranoia justified.
