Sending Email to All Contacts

In Outlook 2002, SP3, on a home computer without Exchange, where email is
through an ISP, I created a special Contacts folder for a soccer team that I
manage; I called the Contacts folder Sting. The Sting folder is a sub-folder
of Contacts. I would like to be able to create a distribution list that
includes all the email addresses in the Sting Contacts folder. However, when
I go to create the distribution list, the Select Members dialog box shows
only the main Contacts folder. Is there a way to bring the Sting Contacts
folder into play here? Or is there another way to accomplish creating the
distribution list that doesn't involve intermingling the soccer team
Contacts with my standard ones?

Thanks.

Rightclick the folder-> Properties-> tab Outlook Address Book-> select the
option.

Note that must use the BCC field or all addresses will be visible to the
rest of the DL. Also note that your ISP may have limited the total number of
recipients for one message.

Or, skip the DL and just send to those contacts: Select them all in the
Sting folder, then choose Actions | New Message to Contact.
 
Thanks! That'll work!

Thanks! Sorry I hadn't investigated that possibility before trying to build
a distribution list.
