- Select New Contact > Contact Group from the ribbon.
- Give a relevant name to your email group, and click on Add members to start adding new emails to the contact list.
- From the Add Members list, click on New E-mail Contact to add new files. Alternatively, you can also add on new names from your Outlook contacts. Simply click on From Outlook Contact, and you’ll be done.
- Enter the name and email address of a contact and hit OK to save the member in this group.
That’s it. Repeat this as many times as you like to keep adding new members to your Outlook group. Now when you want to send the same email to multiple people, simply choose the group, put the email in, and hit Send.
