• Using Your Address Book
  If you haven't started composing your message yet, you can address it directly from your address book. Just follow these steps:

  • Open up your address book.
  • Click on the email address of the contact to whom you wish to send an email. A Compose Message window will open automatically with the email address of the contact in the To: field.
  • To send to more than one contact or to use a distribution list, check the boxes next to the names of the contacts or lists. Select "Send Email" from the drop-down list on the right side of the page, then click the "Go" button to open a screen confirming the recipients. Click "Compose" and a screen will automatically open with the recipients' addresses in the To: field.
  • Compose and send your message.

• Using the Pop-Up Address Book Window
  If you've already started composing an email, use the Pop-Up Address Book window by doing the following:
  • Click the "Address Book" link at the top of the Compose Mail window to open the pop-up address book (do not click on the "Addresses" link on the upper right-hand corner of the page or you'll lose any text you typed).
  • In the pop-up window, locate your intended recipients and check the appropriate boxes (To:, Cc:, or Bcc:) to the left of their names.
  • To send the message to all of the members of one or more of your distribution lists, click the "Distribution List" tab and check the boxes next to the appropriate lists.
  • When you are done selecting recipients, click the "Done" button to return to the Compose Mail window. The recipients' email addresses should appear in the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: fields.
  • Compose and send your message.

• Using Nicknames
  If you've entered contact nicknames in your address book, you can send an email by doing the following:
  • Open the Compose Mail screen and type the nickname of the recipient in the To:, Cc:, or Bcc: field. If you are sending email to multiple contacts, separate their nicknames with commas.
  • If you have created a distribution list, the name of the list functions just like a nickname. Follow the above step, typing the name of your list in the appropriate field.
  • Compose and send your message.

If you've selected Client Mail as your default mail software, follow the instructions for Using Your Address Book listed above.

Please Note: When using any of the above methods, your recipients will see their names as you entered them into your address book, not nicknames or the names of distribution lists. If you have set your default Mail Software to a Client mail please follow step #3 from above.
