How to Address a Group of People in an Email
Email is an instantaneous and cost-effective way of communicating. Not only can a message consist of text but it can include images, video and audio, and can encourage recipients to respond with the click of a button. One way to send email to a group of people is to copy the message and paste it into a new message addressed to each person. A more efficient way is to address one message to several people at once.
