How to Send a Message to a Yahoo Mail Mailing List

Whether you are organizing a big party, a high school reunion, or a work project, sending an email to a whole group of people at once is an efficient time-saver. Take a couple of minutes to set up a mailing list in Yahoo Mail for this purpose. After you set up the mailing list, you're ready to send your first group email.

Set Up a Mailing List in Yahoo Mail

Open a new mail list and add the people you want from your Contacts. Here's how:

1. Press the Contacts icon at the top of the Yahoo Mail screen.

2. Select the Lists tab at the top of the new Contacts section.

3. Select Create List in the left panel.

4. Type a name for the list.

5. Then, start typing the name of the first contact you want to add. When it appears, press Enter on it to add it to the list. Keep going for each contact you want to add.

6. Press Save when you have all the contacts you want to add.

Send a Message to a Yahoo Mail Mailing List

To send an email to all members of a mailing list you set up in Yahoo Mail:

1. Start with a new message. Press Compose to create a new message.

2. Start typing the name of your list in the To field.

3. A list of options will appear below the field. Select your list. All the contacts on the list will be added as recipients of your message.

4. Compose and Send the message.

Yahoo Mail automatically replaces the list name with all the list members' email addresses and distributes the message to them. The list of individual recipients is not disclosed to others who receive the message.
