Hey Tracy
I got those directions from a document but I searched the web and got the 
following:
If you often email a group of people, create a contact group in Outlook so 
you only need to email that contact group instead of individual emails.

Create a contact group

  1.. On the Navigation bar, choose People  .

  2.. Select Home > New Contact Group.

  3.. In the Contact Group box, type the name for the group.

  4.. Select Contact Group > Add Members  , and then select an option:

    a.. Select From Outlook Contacts.

    b.. Select From Address Book.

    c.. Select New E-mail Contact.

  5.. Add people from your address book or contacts list, and choose OK.

  6.. Choose Save & Close.


If someone uses outlook, chime in for tracy

When I hit my alt key, I don’t find anything called People.  Am I in the 
wrong place?

How about trying these steps honey

 On the Navigation bar, click People. Under My Contacts, select the folder 
where you want to save the contact group. On the Ribbon, select New Contact 
Group. Give your contact group a name. Click Add Members, and then add 
people from your address book or contacts list. Click Save & Close.

Hi Jane.

That’s interesting.  I’m using Outlook 2016.  Do you know how to do that 
there?

Tracey

what email client are you using?

I know that in wlm,

while in the contact list

Using control shifrt g will bring up an edit box for new category and then 
of course, you would populate that named category with the contacts you wish

I have a small group of blind people all interested in the same subject.  We’re 
talking about creating a small email discussion list. This is not 
NFB-related.

What’s the easiest way to go about it?  The only “lists” I’ve created I did 
by just copying everyone’s email into a message.  But that depends on 
everyone remembering to reply all every time, so it can break down pretty 
quickly.

I definitely don’t want to do anything like Facebook, which is still 
convinced I’m a robot.

Suggestions?

Tracy
