| | Contact Groups In Windows Mail I have several large contact groups allowing me to send a message to everyone in each group. Occasionally I need to send an e-mail to a contact group but I need to eliminate or delete a contact name from the group, but I don't want to modify the group every time I have to do this. I'd like there to be a way to send the message to a contact group, but somehow display the members of the contact group inside the `To' window, then select one or more and delete them. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks...............Paul C. |

| | Re: Contact Groups With Windows Mail, the only way to do that is to save the message as a Draft, then re-open it. Then you can remove recipients. In the newer Windows Live Mail, it's much easier, as you can expand the group in the message compose window. BTW, most senders use the BCC: field so the recipients don't see each other's addresses. -- Windows 7 beta http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview http://download.live.com/wlmail "Paul Calcagno" <pcalcagno@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:uWeXZEcrJHA.3848@xxxxxx Quote: > In Windows Mail I have several large contact groups allowing me to send a > message to everyone in each group.
