How to Use Webmail: Creating a Group Contact

You can set up a group contact if you need to regularly send a single message to a lot of people at the same time.

 

1. Click on Contacts to bring up your Webmail address book.

   

 

The View Contacts pane is displayed showing your address book contacts.  

2. In the View Contacts pane, select Group from the New menu.

   

 

3. In the Add/Edit Group pane, enter a descriptive name for your group in the Group text area. (In the example below, the group name entered is "fy09docreview.")

   

 

4. In the Available Contacts area, select the contacts you want to add to your group by clicking the check box next to each contact so that a check mark appears and the contact's name and e-mail address are in boldface text.

   Note: You can only add people to your group who you've previously added to your contact list.

   

 

5. Click on the Add Members button when you're ready to add your contacts to the group.

   

 

Your contacts should be displayed in the Group Members area of the Add/Edit Group page.

 

6. Click OK to create your group.

   

 

7. Click on the Groups link in the Mail Navigation Pane.

   

 

The View Groups page will be displayed, and will list the contact group you just created.

 

Note: For each group contact you create, you can do the following:

• Click on the View icon to view the members of your group.
• Click on the Edit icon to modify your group.
• Click on the Delete icon to delete your group.
• Click on the down-pointing arrow to the right of the group name to compose a message to the group.
