Solved: Outlook - Sending Emails to Categories
Hi there,

Just a quick one...

I sync my PST file between work and home, so as you may know this doesn't sync Distribution Groups - which I use all the time for work - emailing groups of people etc.

My genius idea is...what about Categories...because they Sync up. So if I turned my distribution groups into categories, that could work. Only thing is do you know an easy way of emailing categories rather then arsing around with views etc?

Your help would be most appreciated,

Many Thanks

Gav

PS - As I'm new - I've looked around settings to see if I get notified by email to any replies to this thread, but can't find....do you get them?

If you view them by category, you can right-click on the category header and do a new message to it if I recall.

It will, but try "Actions" on the menu bar and then select "New Message to Contact." I thought the right-clicking worked, but I must have been mistaken.
