I am trying to put several email into one group but it seem like I can not
find the how to do it. HELP!!!!
 
To create a group of contacts:

You can create a single group name (or alias) to use when sending a
message to several contacts at once. Simply create a group name and add
individual contacts to the group. Then, just type the group name in the To
box when you send e-mail.

1.. In the Address Book, select the folder in which you want to create a
group. Click New on the toolbar, and then click New Group.
2.. The Properties dialog box opens. In the Group Name box, type the
name of the group.
3.. There are several ways to add people to the group:
a.. To add a person from your Address Book list, click Select Members,
and then click a name from the Address Book list.
b.. To add a person directly to the group without adding the name to
your Address Book, type the person's name and e-mail address in the lower
half of the Properties dialog box, and then click Add.
c.. To add a person to both the group and your Address Book, click New
Contact and fill in the appropriate information.
d.. To use a directory service, click Select Members, and then click
Find. Select a directory service from the drop-down list at the end of the
text box. After finding and selecting an address, it is automatically
added to your Address Book.
4.. Repeat for each addition until your group is defined.

Note

a.. To view a list of your groups separately from the Address Book
listings, in the Address Book, on the View menu, make sure that Folders
and Groups is selected.

b.. You can create multiple groups, and contacts can belong to more than
one group.

If you want to send to a group without all the addresses being shown to
each recipient, open the Address Book and make a new entry. Enter the
group name in the Display field, but use your address. (Some ISPs require
a legitimate address in the To line, and the recipients will know it is
from the group).

Click the To button | Enter the group name using your address in the To
field | Enter the Group in the BCC field.
 
The one warning I have is that I believe there is a limit as to how many
people one can have in a single group. I developed a group with 35 people
and windows mail couldn't handle it. Now I have a windows mail where I
cannot send any e-mails out even if it has only one person I wish to send to.
Cna anyone help on this issue?

The limit is set by your mail server. Windows Mail can handle as many as
you want. Please start your own new thread about your new problem instead
of hijacking this one that is not related. Thank you.

Include any error message in its entirety. You can left click on it to
highlight and then right click to copy and then paste it into this thread.
