Default Sending Email To A Group

Another suggestion:
keep the number of addresses in the group to less than 25 (or contact your
ISP and se if they have limit on the number of addresses on one email).

Hi Steve,

Start by creating a new group entry in the address book. Add the desired
addresses and select this group entry in a new message To, Cc, or Bcc

line.
This is the same as selecting an individual entry. It is often best to use
the Bcc line to protect the privacy of anyone in the group who may not

want
to share their address with someone else in the group. To see the Bcc line
in a message window select All Headers from the View menu of a new

message.

One important suggestion is to create a new entry in the address book

using
your e-mail address. Give this a friendly name that reflects the group.

Use
this entry for the To line.

1. How do I group multiple email addresses so I can send an email to

everyone
in the group?

2. How do I then select the group so that everyone appears in the To:

line or
CC: line?

Thanks!

Steve

I have an address group that numbers 110 addressees, but my provider imposes
a limit of 100. Is there any easy way of breaking this group into two groups
of approx equal numbers without having to do a lot of retyping? Of course, I
could always retype, say, 15 of them into a new group, then delete those from
the larger group, bringing it down under the 100 limit. I'd prefer, however,
to end up with two groups of nearly the same size.

Are all these addresses the same as in your address book? If so,
create a new group. Click Select Members and go about halfway down
the list. Click on an address, then hold Ctrl + Shift and tap End.
Click Select. This puts the bottom half of the addresses in the new
group and you can go to the original group and delete those
addresses.

I hope this gave you some ideas if it was not what you wanted.

Thanks. I wish it were that easy. The 110 addressees that I want to split
into two groups are scattered among the 371 addresees that comprise my main
address book, so I can't perform the steps you suggest. Think I'll just pick
about 20 of them and put them into a new group, then delete those 20 from the
original group.

This isn't too hard to do.

Open the Address Book.
View, check Folders and Groups.
Left click on your Identity (this highlights it).
Click on the + sign by your Identity.
New, Group, name it and click OK.
Left click on your large Group in the Folders pane (this displays the names
in the group in the right pane).
Highlight a middle name.
Shift + End.
Right click on highlighted names, Copy.
Right click on new group name, Paste.
Highlight the same names in the large group, Delete.
