How do I make a group contact list?

I want to put extended family addresses in a "group" for a large family reunion mailing. How do I group them?

I have a group of 18 names I would like to email, with out typing each name individually.

Thanks so much for being smart and not a mule following a carrot on the American running in the ground movement.

Can anyone advise on this....I would like to make a mail group (from my Yahoo E-mail contact list) however, I would NOT like to have everyone's personal name adjacent to their name in the header EX: Bill Smith <[email protected]>. Is there something...

I'd like to be able to list my group in more than one area. Is that possible and if so how do I do this? If it's possible, can it be done to groups that already exist? If this isn't possible, whom would one contact to make such a suggestion and how?

I would like to make a contact list of the my group of students without entering the individual names, and mail address. Is there a way that I can copy the names from my email and enter all of them at the same time into a contact list?

I am unable to see any of my contact group lists in "contacts" nor can I create a new contact list or make any changes to my old lists......What is going on?????
