I had tried dragging and dropping but was unsuccessful - after advice from various sources that, one way or another, that is the way to go, I figured out how to drag and drop the entries from the various sources including the spreadsheet (which could be highlighted and dragged on mass from Appleworks directly in).
Oddly enough, the list that was in the body of an email was trickiest because there were occasional spaces between entries and at first, despite the whole list being highlighted and appearing to drag, only the entries up to the first space would end up in the address field of the group. So, thanks for the advice - a simple but useful thing learned!
