Creating CONTACTS
You can create a group to store a list of people or groups you want to send e-mail to. You can use a group to send the same message to multiple contacts without having to enter each contact separately in the message. The feature that's described isn't available in the light version of Outlook Web App. ||

**How do I add members to a group?**
You can add members to a group by adding them to the **Members** box and then clicking **Add to Group**. You can add multiple entries to a group by typing all or part of a name or an e-mail address in the **Members** box. Separate each entry with a semicolon. When you've finished adding names, click **Add to Group**. If no duplicate names are found, the names will be resolved automatically.

Partial names or e-mail addresses to their corresponding recipients can be automatically resolved only if the partial name or e-mail address is unique. For example, if the address list contains the names John and Johnny, and you type John, the name John isn't unique. This is because John and Johnny can be matched to John. The name John appears in gray text with a dashed red underline to indicate that it isn't unique. If you try to send a message to one or more recipients who can't be resolved to an e-mail address, a menu will be displayed that lists each unresolved name. For each unresolved name, you can delete the name from the list of recipients or select from a list of possible matches that were found in the Address Book.

You can also add members by clicking **Members**. This opens the Address Book. The Address Book lets you search for entries in your organization's shared address book or in your Contacts folder. After you locate the entry you're looking for in the Address Book, add it to the list of members you want to add by selecting the name and then clicking **Members**. Click **OK** to return to your group. Click **Add to Group** to add the entries to your group. Click **Save and Close** to save your changes.
