You can't. If you have contacts categorized, there's no need for a DL.
Display your Contacts folder in the By Category view, select the category
you want and click ActionsNew Message to Contact.

Default distribution list from outlook category

Hi, I've done this, Brian, but in my Outlook 2007, under Actions,
there is no "new message to contact", even when I select a category or
a contact. It is not even grayed out, it simply does not show up
there...
Any ideas ?
