How to create a group mailing list in mac mail
To create a group mailing list in Mac Mail, you can follow these steps:
Method 1: Create a Group from Existing Contacts
- Open Mac Mail and go to the "Contacts" tab.
- Click on "File" > "New Group" (or use the keyboard shortcut Command + Shift + G).
- Enter a name for your group, such as "Friends" or "Family".
- Click "OK" to create the group.
- Select the contacts you want to add to the group by checking the boxes next to their names.
- Right-click (or control-click) on the selected contacts and choose "Add to Group" > "Friends" (or the name you chose in step 3).
- Repeat steps 5-6 for each contact you want to add to the group.
Method 2: Create a Group from Scratch
- Open Mac Mail and go to the "Contacts" tab.
- Click on "File" > "New Group" (or use the keyboard shortcut Command + Shift + G).
- Enter a name for your group, such as "Friends" or "Family".
- Click "OK" to create the group.
- Click on the "Add Contact" button (+) at the bottom of the Contacts window.
- Enter the email address and other contact information for each person you want to add to the group.
- Click "Save" to add the contact to the group.
Sending an Email to a Group
- Open Mac Mail and compose a new email.
- In the "To" field, start typing the name of your group (e.g. "Friends").
- As you type, a dropdown menu will appear with a list of groups you've created.
- Select the group you want to send the email to.
- Enter the subject and body of your email as usual.
- Click "Send" to send the email to all members of the group.
Tips:
- You can also add or remove contacts from a group by right-clicking (or control-clicking) on the group name and selecting "Edit Group" or "Remove from Group".
- To send an email to a group, you can also use the "Bcc" field instead of the "To" field. This will send the email to all members of the group, but their email addresses will not be visible to each other.
- If you have a large number of contacts in a group, you may want to consider using a third-party email client or service that supports group mailing lists, such as Gmail or Outlook.
