Adding contacts to a distribution list using categories

I know they do, I have already copied contacts to the BCC field. I
can't create message to category in Outlook 2003, I don't know how to
do it. Instead I'm doing the following:
- Create a category and add email recipients to it
- Select all members in that category and under the Actions menu,
select New Message to Contact. This then copies all the email
addresses within that category into the To field of the email.
Apparently you DO know how because you just described the method Gordon
mentioned.
- I then select all these and copy them.
- I create a new distribution list, click Select Members and then
paste into the Members field. I save my distribution list.
- I then create my email and put the distribution list into BCC.
Why are you doing that? You already have your messages addressed to the
people you want to receive it. If yo want to hide their address at this
point, right-click the To field, choose Select All, then click and drag the
list to the Bcc field. All done.
