I have created a group of 20 people. Each has 3 email addresses. I want to send emails to every email however, when I type my group name on the TO: line, it pulls only one email address.
iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
There is no easy way to do that. For each contact in a group, you can only choose one address to use via Edit Distribution List.
If you want to send it to all three addresses, create three groups and add each group to the address field. I tested this once when I dreamed it up years ago, and haven't tested again, so I don't know if it still works.
Another method is to just create the email with every address you want in the group. Select all of the addresses and drag them to the Desktop (or another folder). That will create a Text Clipping. Rename it so you can remember what the group is for.
You can then drag that text clipping into the address field of new messages and it will populate with all the addresses.
If you need to add or delete, drag it in, add or delete addresses, then select all and drag it to the desktop again.
Maybe it's just me, but if someone sent me the same email to all of my email addresses I'd put them on the auto-delete list.
thank you Barney. FYI I am not sending the same email to one persons 3 different email. It is a player with his address, moms email and dads email. That would be stupid to send the email three times to the same person. I will try your method. Thank you.
Separate your Contacts into actual individuals instead of three people as the same person.
I want to send an email using my group.
