So i'm having the same problem as mentioned in the first post..
The actual problem is that (from what I noticed), the contact that are
synchronisted through iTunes from my iPhone (no MobileMe), aren't able to be
added into a distribution list.
When I try to add a contact into a DL and press OK, nothing happens and the
list remains empty. That's the problem... I guess something changes with the
contacts when they're synchronised...
When creating a new contact in Outlook, it can be added into a DL immediatly..
