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 Image removed by sender. 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 Image removed by sender. Add Members, and then select an option:

o    Select From Outlook Contacts.

o    Select From Address Book.

o    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?

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
