| | Re: Help creating Distribution list with contacts in Windows Mail They are called groups. When you open the Contacts folder, there should be a button on the toolbar for "New Contact Group" "mjm" <mjm@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:EDAD9B85-B1AA-43B6-8D4C-CE309EF5297F@xxxxxx Quote: > I have imported a list of contacts into Windows Mail and cannot figure out > how to create Distribution lists like I used to in Outlook Express...can > someone help? |

| | Re: Help creating Distribution list with contacts in Windows Mail Your Contacts folder has apparently switched from it's proper default template. Open Contacts Right-click on a blank area of the right pane, and select "Customize this folder" in the pull-down box, select "Contacts" ok Quote: ><mjm@xxxxxx> wrote in message >news:C4858057-3208-4393-932F-20DD13A4CA09@xxxxxx > Dave - it must be me but I don't have or don't see the Groups or New Group > button...these contacts were imported from Outlook Express...any other > suggestions?
