    The native mail and contacts apps do not support distribution lists.  One workaround is to create a contact and place all of the email addresses in a single field, separated by a comma, but I'm not sure what the string limit is for this (or whether it is still possible in 8.2).

     

    Your best bet would be to find a mail app in the app store designed for this (there are a few).
