Default Distribution List sent to me will not save to my contacts

Hopefully, someone will be able to help me with this. I use Outlook 2007. The
person who sent me the DL uses Outlook 2003. I can view and open the
attachment fine. My concern is that I thought I could save the DL to my
Contacts, however I am finding no way to do this. Is this possible? If so, is
there a particular button I need to click on that I am just overlooking???

I appreciate any help anyone can offer --- by the way I already looked in
Outlook's Help - it didn't work.

Thanks,

There are several other methods as well, depending on how the DL was sent.
Also, DL's are no different in Outlook 2007 than 2003.

You could have dragged the attachment directly from the message to the folder
without saving it first.
