Address book versus Windows Contacts

In Outlook Express I am able to break my address book into groups with common
interests ( friends, business contacts, trave contacts etc). I am looking or
a way to do this in Windows Mail address book as well. I can do it for
Contacts but not for the address book.
Conversely, if I wish to send (or forward) an email to seveal people in my
contact list at once, how do I do that?

Re: Address book versus Windows Contacts

Groups are available in WM as well.
when you open WM Contacts at the top you should see the Add items for new contacts and/or new group.
if you do not, then right click on the CONTACT folder in the left pane , select properties and under Customize select Contacts from the drop down list.
you should then see the add groups under contacts.

on the second question, if you have not set up groups for the people, then use the Bcc line and select them individually from the contacts.
if you cannot see the Bcc line then use the VIEW at the top of the edit window and select All headers.
if you have set up Groups, then just enter the Group name in the Bcc.
