Thank you so much for this solution.
Worked like a charm. I had no unresolved entries, all I had to do was open it up in OWA, add a new entry, close it, and re-open via Outlook client. Issue resolved.

I have been having the same issue when I use Outlook 2007 but staff still using Outlook 2002 can still open the group ok. I will try access via OWA see if I can see any unresolved items (never heard of those before) seems silly having to open a remote desktop connection with an old version of a program each time i want to use it.

I had this same problem, with my DL not opening because of memory. i was able to open it and edit it in OWA. After making it a little smaller by creating a second list, i went back to my normal out look and was able to open both lists. Thanks for the tip.

You may need to trim down the number of items in the list. This is another reason for the error. Take the Distribution list and split it in two. Put half in one and half in the other…you should be able to open them both after that

I was able to Open the distribution list from OWA and deleted unresolved address, but I still can’t open it from Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007.
