Hi

Can't seem to find out how to send email to a group/category(s) using the
Business (not Accounts) contacts
This to me is a basic function yet program is not clear or helpful in how to
use this service.

Thanks,
Monique
 
Clarify what you mean. "using the Business (not Accounts) contacts" is a
term only you would understand. It means nothing to us. It is simply to send
email to a Category in Outlook. Select the Category > Actions > New Message
to Contact.
 
Within outlook 2003 there are functions where you can set-up accounts or
business contacts! There is no way (that I can tell) to easily sent-to the
categories / groups set-up when emailing out - requiring to send 'eBlasts' to
sent to the contacts in each catetory. I assumed that that was the point of
putting contacts in category/group distictions.

I will try your suggestions BUT wouldn't it have been far easier (as Hotmail
Live does) to 'simply' but the option of SENDing out to categories/groups
right 'in' the send email window (new button) function??

I'm shocked that 'business contact vs account contacts' is foreign to an
outlook 2003 forum manager.

I'm not a "forum manager." Outlook has no such thing as "Business Contacts."
If you are using a separate program like Business Contact Manager, the say
so and then post in that group, not this one. I've never used BCM and never
would.
