Hi Pooja,

Thank you for writing to Aspose support team.

I have tried to re-produce the scenario by creating a distribution list using Outlook 2013 and saved it on disc. Following sample code is used to add this distribution list to the Contacts folder of PST. However I am afraid, that I could not find this distribution list in the PST while opening it in Outlook. Could you please provide following information to analyze the issue and provide assistance accordingly?

  1. Provide us code which is used for creation of this PST.
  2. Provide the sample distribution list which is added to above mentioned PST.
  3. Provide the output PST file.
  4. Image showing this newly added distribution list in PST (while opening it in Outlook).
using (PersonalStorage outputPst = PersonalStorage.Create(“Output.pst”, FileFormatVersion.Unicode))
{
    MapiMessage mapi = MapiMessage.FromFile("How-to geek Ninja's.msg");
    FolderInfo OutPstContacts = outputPst.CreatePredefinedFolder("Contacts", StandardIpmFolder.Contacts);
    OutPstContacts.AddMessage(mapi);
}
