Create an email group

   The Users / Roles page appears.

2. Click Email Groups.

   The Email Groups page for managing emails and email groups appears.

   Note: You may experience a delay in loading information for e-mail groups containing a large number of emails.

3. On the Manage Groups tab, click the plus sign to add an email group.

4. In the New Group window, specify a name for the new email group in the Name field, then click OK.

   The new email group is added to the list of available groups. The email group name only accepts alphanumeric characters.

   Note: Available emails are only displayed when you select a group.

5. To add an email address to the group, select the group and then use the Right Arrow (>) to add a single email or the Double-Right Arrow (>>) to add all available emails to the Selected list.

   To add individual email addresses, use the Manage Emails tab.

6. (Optional) Use the Search box to find email addresses by either the first or last name of the recipient or the address itself.
