Email a sharable contact group

Hello,
scenario: Exchange 2010 SP3
Outlook 2010 SP1
A user created a contact group and shared it with a bunch of internal users. These users see the contact group in their outlook profile. One of these users would like to email to this shared contact group. He opens up a new email and tries to find the sharable
group. He is unable to. He chooses address book and looks into his contacts and nothing there.
Is it possible to email a sharable contact group in outlook 2010? If so how?
Alexis

Hi Alexis,
Please drag and drop the shared contact group from Shared Contacts folder to the contact of My Contacts folder. Then the shared contact group would be copied to the user's own contact folder and can be selected from Address Book for send messages.

How do you send an email to a contact group

How do you send an email to a contact group?

If you mean on your iOS device, unless something has changed recently you have to use an app to do this (like Speed Names or similar).

How do I send email to a Contacts Group list?

Thank you for your quick reply. I've had a MAC for several years but never used this option. (We are all infants when doing something for the first time. A recent TBI has also stunted my figure-it-out-yourself ability.) I appreciate your help. (PS I want to indicate this solved my question, but I can't see where to do that!)

How do I add multiple emails to a Contacts group from a file?

I have a weekly newsletter I send out to a few hundred people. Their email addresses are all stored in a text file. I want to create a Group to use with Mac Mail, but I don't know how to import the list into an existing Group. I tried creating a CSV file with only the email addresses (that's all I have), but Contacts wouldn't import it, didn't recongize the file as CSV. (I did add a comma to the end of each email.)
How do I create a Group in Contacts? And can I then use that group in Mac Mail?
thanks
Scott

I did figure this out, sort of, by adding a tab character to the beginning of each email address in my text file. Contact then let me import it, and I could select the field for the email address. So I've imported my list as a group of 700+ emails.
BUT now when I try and add that Group in the To: or Cc: or Bcc: fields in mail, it just disappears when I type it.
Any idea what's up with that?
thanks
Scott

Exchange server - Synergy contact grouping overzealous - "[No email address found]" contact grouping problem

I'm pretty sure I just discovered an issue that needs addressing.
To start, I have 1000+ contacts on my employer's MS Exchange server (with an Outlook client). I'm fairly proud of them, because of all the work I've put into them in terms of removing dupes, eliminating empties, etc. etc. etc. It's high maintanence.
Ever since I got my Pre, it's been grouping a whole slew of contacts (573 to be exact) under some random master contact. For a while, everything was under the IRS, and whenever someone dialed my phone, "IRS" popped up. Yikes! For a while, I was deleteing the master contact & remaking it, but the 573 would just group under some other seemingly random contact. These contacts are completely unrelated (at least to a human, they are). Currently, the master contact card is a guy named "Richard".
Well, I'm pretty sure I found out that what these contacts have in common: they have no email address. Outlook (once again) screws everything up by politely populating the empty email address field with "[No email address found]" (quotes not included). The Pre identifies these contacts as having the same email address, and therefore, eligible to be grouped by Synergy.
2 questions:
Microsoft, why do you do stupid crap like this?! You absolutely ruin things with verbosity. A missing piece of data tells the user as much as a present piece of data. You don't have to actually *say* "This piece of data is not present". It's obvious.
and
Palm, why didn't you know that Microsoft does stupid crap like this?! Don't you know the success of your product, maybe your company, is on the line?
I can't be the only one with this problem. Reply to this thread if this rings any bells for anyone else.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I ended up using the column view trick. Column view -> sort by email address -> click & delete every "[No email address found]" entry. In my experience, I've found that just putting in the digital elbow grease takes less time than using things like scripting.
I'm just sad that these things don't get designed well to begin with. I've got other very basic gripes about the Pre. I'm told it works much better with a Google account. I'd love to jump on that bandwagon, but work is using Exchange. You simply must must must work with Exchange sever since so many big corporations have drunk Bill Gates' Koolaid. But to provide buggy Exchange compatibility is risky, even moreso when your company's future depends on the success of your current device.
Palm is clearly getting into bed with Google at the expense of Microsoft. I suppose that's the way I'd go too, but for the time, Palm's buggy Exchange support sets up RIM to keep running the table with Blackberrys. If they had just done Exchange right, they would have double the sales they have now, and Apple and RIM would really have something to worry about.

Outlook 2010 Contact Group restrict to only send using BCC

After spending a few hours online looking for an answer, I think it is time to ask creative minds. Basically, I send an email to 15 different contact groups all at once (700 email addresses). I need them to not be able to see the other email addresses
in the group and not be able to "reply all" to everyone on the email. The easy answer is just put them all under BCC, but sometimes I accidently send the email with the contact groups in the "To" field. I would like something
that stops my error permanently. Either by automatically setting those groups to the BCC field when selected (instead of the To field) or something else. Any ideas?

Not all emails are showing up when using a contact group

Hi,
I haven't seen a similar question posted to the forum, so hopefully someone can help me.
I have a MBP running Mavericks 10.9.5 and I'm trying to create a contact group to expedite emails. I've created the group in my mac's contact app, however when I select the group to email (regardless of if I select "send email to..." in contacts or do a search for the group directly in the To: line of the email) only 2 of the 6 contacts in the group show up.
Some troubleshooting I've already tried: adding the same group to all the accounts in the contacts app (i.e. iCloud, On My Mac and my personal email account); verifying there's only one email address shown in each of the individual contact cards; switching all the email address labels from "email" to "home" in each contact person's card; and the classic restart.
It's always the same 2 contacts of the 6 that show up, so I'm assuming there must be something those two have the the others don't. I appreciate any ideas on what else to try.
Thanks!

Thanks. I had the first row colored as a header but it wasn't defined as a header. As soon as I did that within Numbers the table appeared.

I have set up all my email contacts in my iphone 4. Am i able to set up a group as i often sent an email to 42 contacts?

YOu will need to create that group contact on the server side, I don't think you can do it on the iphone itself.

Contacts: Specify which email address to use in Contact Group?

I have a few mailing lists that I keep in Contacts. However, I have multiple email addresses for some of these contacts. When I send an email to the list, the wrong email address will be used for some of the contacts. Is it possible to specify a default email address for a contact? Or a way to specify which email address of a contact should be used for each Contact group?
Thanks!

Yes.
So select the group in Contacts. Then choose Edit->Edit Distribution List... and you can pick which of the emails you want to use for the group in question.
It took me a while to find it, but I've done it before so I managed to turn it up

Drag the entire group into the To: field of a new message. The group is in your Address Book. You've used a name for it, like My Group. You can simply start typing "My Group" in that To: field and it should appear in a context menu.

How do I use a Contact Group email address as the sender of an email?

I want members of the contact group to be able to manual select the contact group email address as the SENDER. This, primarily, so that recipient clients can respond, if necessary, by merely pressing reply (then the entire group gets the email).
Possible?

By "contact group" do you mean a distribution group? If so, you need to use one of the following the shell commands:
For Send on Behalf: Set-DistributionGroup <group alias> -GrantSendOnBahalfTo <useralias>
For Send As: Add-AdPermission<group ID>-User<user alias>-ExtendedRights'Send-As'

Text file over 200 external email addresses to add to outlook client - Can I import these email addresses to a Group Contact in outlook

Can i import from a text file (text file only has smtp address) over 200 external email addresses to 2010 outlook client - specifically group contact. I did not see an import button on outlook client. It would be very convenient if users can manipulate
a text file which has all their external email addresses import these addresses to one group contact (mailing list)

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.

Default email for each contact when emailing to a group?

Hi
When I use Mail.app's shortcut for sending email to a group, I don't seem to have control over which of several emails (work, home, etc.) that exists is being used for each contact.
I want to specify a default email for each contact so that I don't have to manually adjust each contact.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!

Make 2 contacts with an email address each rather than 1 contact with 2 addresses.
