If you send messages to the same group of addresses, you can create distribution lists from your Address Book tab. A distribution list is a group of mail addresses contained in a list with a common mail address. When an email message is sent to a distribution list, the email is sent to everyone whose address is included in the distribution list. The recipient sees the distribution list name in the To: line of the message and if they are using the bubble view, they can click the + to see the members of the distribution list.
Distribution lists are stored in the Distribution Lists address book. When you click on a distribution list in the address book, all members of the list display in the Content field.
A distribution list can be created as a list of members and you can manage the membership to the list. Additional options that you can configure let you
Mark the list private so it hidden in the Global Address List
Limit who can send to the list
Let users subscribe to and unsubscribe from the list
Set up multiple owners to help manage the list
