You can add one or more contacts to a contact list keeping the following in mind:

• You must create a contact before you can add contact information to a list. For example, an email address must be part of a contact's details to be added to a list.
• A contact can belong to more than one list.
• You can add any of your contacts to a list, but only those that include an email address receive email messages sent to the list.

   Your contacts appear in the middle column.
