Situation:

Imagine we have two address books:

addrbook 1 --> Foo
addrbook 2 --> Goo

Let us suppose that Foo contains a mailing list called theList.

We have some cards in Goo that we want to include in theList.  If we include
them in theList. theList is updated but now we have some new cards that
magically appear in Foo.  Why don't we just have a pointer to the cards in Goo?

Seems like the real bug is that you can't have items in a mail list that are
part of a different address book.  This is probably a feature, so this might be
better marked as RFE.

This actually occurs when you're adding a mailing list to another mailing list
as well. So if you have group1 and group2, and AllGroups is supposed to send to
group1 and group2, and you add group1 and group2, it won't refer to the group1
and group2 lists, but will create new empty entries with group1 and group2 as
addresses.

I was at a client's house setting her up with open source tools and she needed
to have a mailing list moved from one address book to another.  I tried simply
dragging and dropping from one to the other, but this had the effect of creating
a new card in the target list bearing the name of the Mailing List - but it was
not itself a mailing list and seemed to lack no relationship with it in any way.

On a somewhat related note, it would be wonderful if the Mailing List editor was
a non-modal window so addresses could be dragged and dropped into it.

Added word possibly to title as some people may want cards created in
the address book as well as the mailing list. Also moving to core
address book.

Pretty similar experiences, I have a list of contacts. When I create a
group list it creates a copy of the email card. Outlook is actually very
good in that respect you simply select a created profile to join the
list.
