Hey David,
I hope this is what you want. This is for outlook express 5-6.

Create a group of contacts

You can create a single group name (or alias) to use when sending a message to 
several contacts at once. Simply create a group name and add individual contacts

to the group. Then, just type the group name in the To box when you send e-mail.

List of 4 items (contains 1 nested list)

1. In the Address Book, select the folder in which you want to create a group. 
Click New on the toolbar, and then click New Group.

2. The Properties dialog box opens. In the Group Name box, type the name of the 
group.

3. There are several ways to add people to the group:

. To add a person from your Address Book list, click Select Members, and then 
click a name from the Address Book list.

. To add a person directly to the group without adding the name to your Address 
Book, type the person's name and e-mail address in the lower half of the

Properties dialog box, and then click Add.

. To add a person to both the group and your Address Book, click New Contact 
and fill in the appropriate information.

. To use a directory service, click Select Members, and then click Find. Select 
a directory service from the drop-down list at the end of the text box.

After finding and selecting an address, it is automatically added to your 
Address Book.

. To view a list of your groups separately from the Address Book listings, in 
the Address Book, on the View menu, make sure that Folders and Groups is 
selected.

group.

I was just reviewing the tips and tricks page and it occurs to me that 
although there are instructions for posting to multiple contacts in your 
address book they stop short of explaining how to put such a list of people 
in to a single contact group. I could work on this myself of course but if 
somebody out there already might happen to have these instructions ready to 
go then I wouldn't need to reinvent the wheel so to speak.
