Creating group email lists in Gmail simplifies the process of sending emails to multiple recipients. Instead of manually adding addresses one by one, you can create a group that contains similar contacts. This saves time and allows you to focus on more important tasks.
To create a group email list in Gmail, follow these steps:
1. Open Google Contacts and log in.
2. Hover over the first contact you want to add to the group and click the checkbox to the left of their name.
3. Repeat step 2 for all contacts you want to include.
4. Click the ‘Label’ button at the top of the page.
5. Select ‘Create label’ from the dropdown menu.
6. Give your group a name and click ‘Create’.
Once you have created a group, you can add contacts to it by following the same steps. To send an email to your group, compose a new message and enter the group’s name in the ‘To’ field.
If you want to keep recipient names hidden from other group members, use the ‘Bcc’ (blind carbon copy) method. This ensures that recipients cannot see who else the email was sent to.
To use Bcc, click the ‘Cc/Bcc’ button in Gmail and enter the group’s name in the ‘Bcc’ field.
Google Contacts is a free service that allows you to manage your contacts and create groups. You can also use it to share contacts with other Gmail accounts.
By following these steps, you can easily create group email lists and send emails to multiple recipients in a quick and efficient manner.
