It may be easiest to manually edit the vcf file.  I have actually  
forgotten how I originally made mine, but I think a distribution list  
is just a single entry with multiple email addresses.  As I remember,  
the format is pretty obvious once you actually look at it.  You could  
also create a list with just two addresses to confirm the format, and  
then do the rest in your favorite text editor.
