Hello Christopher,
Please follow :-
Step 1
Open the text file in a text editor, such as Notepad. Each address should reside on a separate line or be separated by a semicolon. You can include multiple fields, such as names and addresses, by separating the fields by a space or tab.
Step 2
Press "Ctrl-A" to select all contacts on the list and then "Ctrl-C" to copy them.
Step 3
Click "New Items" from the main Outlook window, "More Items" and then "Contact Group."
Step 4
Click "Add Members" and then "From Address Book."
Step 5
Click the "Members" field, press "Ctrl-V" to paste the list of emails and click "OK."
Step 6
Click the "Name" field and type a name for the group.
Step 7
Click "Save & Close" to save your changes.
Step 8
Click "New Email" and type the name of the group in the "To" field. You can then compose and send email as usual.
