| In my Address Book, the left list is the name of the individual (in my

| shows if I double click that name.

| I don't know of any way to copy the list
|
| Open address book, you should see your Contacts folder in left pane and
| all
| it's contacts in the right pane
|
| Click plus sign to expand your Contacts folder.
|
| All your groups should display.
|
| Click one of your groups, all contacts for that group should display in
| right pane.
|
| Select the first name to highlight it, then while holding down the shift
| key
| select one of the other names half way down the list, all contacts
| in-between should highlight.
|
| On the Edit menu choose Copy.
|
| Create a new group but do not put any contacts in it.
|
| The new group should display in the left hand pane with all the other
| groups.
|
| Click it, then on edit menu choose Paste.
|
| The names your copied from your first group should now display in the
new
| group.
|
| When satisfied with results delete those names from the first group.

| | The message wasn't very long; it was the number of recipients that was
| too
| | large. It's been OK for a long time, I may have just added a couple
too
| | many more this month. I always put my address in the To, and the the
| group
| | list in the BCC.
| |
| | Problem in creating two new groups is that I don't know of any way to
| copy
| | the list (or half of it).

| | The number of addresses is too large to send or the message is too
| large?
| | (OE doesn't care about either but your ISP probably does.)
| |
| | Assuming the latter, you can create two (2) new Groups with half of
| the
| | addresses in each & then delete the original Group; or you can
create
| one
| | (1) new Group with one half of the addresses it in it then delete
| those
| | addresses from the original Group.
| |
| | PS: Have you tried putting the original Group in the BCC field (and
| then
| | your address in the TO field)?
