Dear Ms. Bytes,

I spend a lot of time in Outlook emailing, tasking, maintaining my calendar and keeping track of my Contacts.  Since upgrading to 2010, I have not been able to find a feature that I used daily.  I like to open my Contacts, select several and send a message to them all at once.  This would create an email addressed to anyone I had selected.  Can I do this in 2010?

Sincerely,
Lost in 2010

 

Dear Lost in 2010,

This is a great feature and is definitely available in your new version of Outlook.  In your Contacts, select the individuals to whom you would like to send a message. This can be done by holding down the CTRL key while clicking the desired Contacts.  Then click EMAIL from the Communicate grouping on the Home tab.  A new email window will display with all of your recipients ready for you to enter your message.

Sincerely,
Ms. Bytes
