Creating Group/distribution lists

[Rebecca]

Hi,
Can anyone help me figure out how to import, or basically
copy and paste hundreds of addresses from an Excel
database, instead of retyping them all out to create a
distribution list of student contacts??

Thanks so much

Import directly to a new, blank contacts folder specifically to hold those
student names. I recommend that you then skip the DL, which would be
diffcult to keep updated. Instead, you can select all the items in that
folder and create a bulk message with the Actions | New Message to Contact
command. Or, better yet, use the Tools | Mail Merge command to send an
individual message to each student using Word's mail merge feature.
