creating "categorie" groups for emailing

[BK Olson]

I am a member of multiple local organizations in which I would like to e-mail
groups of other members. When I click on the "to" in my new e-mail it brings
up lists of different named contact groups that I have. I want to form
different email groups based on the categorie they are in but can not seem to
do that. i have tried to form a new distribution list which does not allow me
to see the categorie tab in the "select Members" window.

How do I form email groups by categorie so when I click on "new E-mail" and
then on "to..." it would allow me to choose from other lists I create? If
this is not clear please ask and I will try to explain it better.

Thank you so much for any help you can give.

If you have created Categories you have no need for nor should you use DL's.
DL's are so dysfunctional almost everyone has abandoned them.
