Use the People page in to view, create, and edit contacts and contact lists.

That way, everyone in the distribution list receives the same message and you save time. Put the name of the list in the Name field. If you use a different email program, it should be a similar process. When you've added everyone to the list, select Create. Select People from the bottom left of the Outlook window. Tip: Favorite contacts with an email address will also show up in the left pane in Mail so you can see all their email in one place. Contact lists are sometimes referred to as distribution lists. Get to Contact Group quicker with the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+L. Now you are ready to begin the merge by selecting the “Mailings” tab in the ribbon. Linked contacts appear as a single contact.

Select the name of the contact you want to add to your distribution list. Select Add more to add more information, such as the contact's address and birthday. Locate and click the People icon in the lower left-hand corner.
