Method 3: Using a Third-Party Extension

There are several third-party extensions available that allow you to create mailing groups in Gmail. One popular option is "Group Mail" by Google. To install this extension:

  1. Go to the Chrome Web Store and search for "Group Mail".
  2. Click on the "Add to Chrome" button to install the extension.
  3. Once installed, click on the "Group Mail" icon in the top right corner of your Gmail window.
  4. Click on the "Create group" button to create a new group.
  5. Enter a name for your group and click "Create".
  6. Enter the email addresses of the recipients, separated by commas, and click "Add".

Using a Mailing Group

Once you've created a mailing group, you can use it to send emails to all the recipients in the group. To do this:

  1. Log in to your Gmail account.
  2. Click on the "Compose" button to start a new email.
  3. In the "To" field, type the name of the group you created, followed by a colon.
  4. Gmail will automatically populate the "To" field with the email addresses of the recipients in the group.
  5. Enter your email message and click "Send".

Note: When you send an email to a mailing group, the recipients will see the email address of the group in the "From" field, rather than your individual email address.
