You have composed your group email, and now it is time to add your recipients. You do not have to manually type in email addresses or even add them one by one from your email address book. Instead, copy and paste emails from a previous group email using a few simple Control commands. Remember that Control + A means "select all," Control + C means "copy" and Control + P means "paste."

Step 1

Open an old group email that has all or most of the email addresses you need in the "To" box. An easy way to search for a group email is to click the "Sender" tab on your email toolbar. The list will move into an alphabetical list, and you may be able to find a regular sender of group emails--such as your boss--by scrolling down the alphabetized list.
