Gmail Tip:
Contact Groups
Post date: Feb 06, 2012 7:11:57 PM
With contact groups you can easily organize your contacts, making it easier to email a specific set of people. For example, if you created a contact group called "Soccer club", you could just send a message to that group, rather than sending out an email to 50 different people. Never leave somebody off an email again!
To create a contact group:
Click Mail at the top-left corner of your Gmail page, then choose Contacts.
Select contacts that you want to add to a group, click the Groups button. , then Create new.
Enter the name of the group.
Click OK.
To add contacts to a contact group:
Select the contacts in the Contacts list.
Click the Groups button.
Select the group you'd like to add the contact to, or select Create new to create a new group.
If you have multiple addresses saved for a contact, you can choose which address should belong to the contact group by opening the contact and clicking the small arrow next to the group you'd like to modify.
Note: These instructions work only with the standard version of Gmail. If they don't match what you see in your Contact Manager, we suggest that you upgrade to a fully supported browser or click standard versionin your account.
