Creating a Contact List

Last modified 11/21/2024

In Microsoft 365 Outlook on the web, use the People app to create, edit, or delete contact lists. A contact list is a collection of contacts or people (also known as a distribution list). You can send an email message to a contact list. When you send the message, it goes to all of the people in the list at the same time.
