How to Setup a Mailing List
An email mailing list allows one email to be distributed to many people at the same time. There are several situations where an email mailing list will save time and money. For example, it can be used by businesses as a cheap method to spread awareness of their products to customers, or as a way for someone to invite friends to a party. You can use the Microsoft Outlook program to set up a mailing list, in addition to email transmission, storing contact information and managing a calendar.
