Using Groups

When users put contacts in their own address books, they can then create groups or "mailing lists" within them so that e-mails can be sent to multiple persons.

Sending a message to a large group when the content may not be of interest to the majority of recipients will be perceived negatively. It is called "spam." Seminar announcements, want ads, etc., should be posted in “SGU Post,” rather than sent as an e-mail to a large group.

If it is necessary to send a messages to a group, we strongly advise to place the group in the “BCC” (or Blind Carbon Copy) field. This will avoid having recipients receive messages with extremely long address headers.
