Can you create mail lists in google education

Yes, Google Workspace for Education (formerly G Suite for Education) allows you to create and manage email lists, also known as "groups" or "distribution lists". This feature enables you to send emails to multiple recipients at once, making it easier to communicate with students, teachers, or staff members.

Here's how to create a mail list in Google Workspace for Education:

Method 1: Using the Google Admin Console

  1. Sign in to the Google Admin Console with your administrator account.
  2. Go to the "Apps" section and click on "G Suite" (or "Google Workspace" if you're using the new name).
  3. Click on "Settings" and then select "Organization & users".
  4. Click on "Groups" from the left-hand menu.
  5. Click on "Create group" and enter the group name, description, and email address.
  6. Choose the group type: "Email group" or "Non-email group" (the latter is used for non-email purposes, such as sharing files or documents).
  7. Set the group's visibility: "Public" (visible to anyone), "Private" (visible only to members), or "Hidden" (not visible to anyone).
  8. Add members to the group by searching for their email addresses or names.
  9. Click "Create" to create the group.

Method 2: Using the Google Classroom

  1. Sign in to Google Classroom with your teacher account.
  2. Click on the "Class" menu and select "People".
  3. Click on the "Create group" button.
  4. Enter the group name and description.
  5. Add members to the group by searching for their email addresses or names.
  6. Click "Create" to create the group.

Method 3: Using Gmail

  1. Sign in to Gmail with your teacher account.
  2. Click on the "Compose" button to start a new email.
  3. In the "To" field, type the email address of the group you want to create (e.g., [email protected]).
  4. Add the group name in the "Subject" field.
  5. Send the email to create the group.

Once you've created a mail list, you can use it to send emails to all members of the group. Simply address the email to the group's email address, and all members will receive the email.

Note: As an administrator, you can also manage groups, add or remove members, and change group settings using the Google Admin Console or Google Classroom.
