How to Make an Email Group in Outlook
Creating an email group (also known as a contact group) in Microsoft Outlook helps sending emails to a specific set of people easier and quicker. We’ll show you how to make an email group, use the group, edit the group, and delete the group, in Outlook’s web, desktop, and mobile versions.
In case you don’t know, an email or contact group in Outlook is a set of multiple email addresses. You create a group, add people to that group, and then use that group’s name to send emails. This way, you only have to enter the group’s name in Outlook’s To field to send your email to multiple people at once.

Can You Create an Email Group in Outlook for Mobile?
Unfortunately, Outlook’s app for iPhone and Android doesn’t allow users tocreate email groups. The app allows you to view and add contacts, but you can’t make contact groups.
However, you can use the contact groups created in Outlook’s web or desktop version in the mobile app.
How to Send an Email to a Contact Group in Outlook
After creating an email group, you can send an email to all members of the group. Doing so is as easy as sending an email to an individual person. You type in the group name instead of someone’s email address in the To field, and Outlook sends your email to everyone included in that group.
Outlook will deliver the email to everyone in the selected email group.
From now on, you can use the group’s name instead of individual email addresses in the To field to email several people at once
Make Sending Emails to Several People at Once Easier in Outlook
If you send emails to a specific set of people often, ease your job by making an email groupand letting Outlook send the email to individuals in that group. This feature makes emailing several people at once easier, faster, and more convenient, as you don’t have to type individual email addresses in the To field.
We hope the guide helps you set up the feature, so you can work less and do more with Outlook on your devices. Happy emailing!
