How to Make a Group Email in Gmail - Two Methods

In this Gmail tutorial, I will show you two ways to make a group email. Creating a group for email will save you time when sending messages to a group of people. The first way is to go to Contacts and either add new contacts or use existing contacts and add them to a label. The second way is to use Google Groups to create a new group and add members. When you create the group, a new email address is created for the group.

I agree- thanks for a clear, easy-to-understand, video! Setting up distribution lists in GMail isn't as intuitive as 1 might think!

I am trying to create a new google group and i have almost 2000 Email ID to add in this group. When i copy & paste all mail IDs, there is a mesaage flashing that you can add only 10 members at a time. When i hit create group, i can see only 11 members including self. So, my objective of adding 2000 mail Ids in one single google group is not fulfilled. Is there any restriction on numbers? Pls guide how to create this group with max number of E-Mail IDs into it? Help pls

Clear and easy to follow. It’s not intuitive and I looked and looked….now that I saw it everything makes sense.

Thank you SO much! I couldn't figure it out on my own, and Google sure wasn't making it easy.

I hate Google sometimes. I have 6 email addresses that I want to send a group email. I don't want or need to create individual contacts. I simply need to send the email. Why is this so difficult?

when setting up a google group, can you only include members by them accepting an invite or can you add them without them having to accept a formal invitation from you?
