Not that it probably matters to you, but you just lost one with that comment.

That you prefer hotmail is ok, but you're statement about gmail is not substantiated..My experience is that gmail is way faster and LESS buggy than hotmail (the latter often won't load in the full version). That and the fact that gmail doesn't keep my e-mail hostage is a good reason to vote for gmail over hotmail.

This has been around for a while, way before the change to the new contacts manager. I've used it a couple times to send to a group of friends, but now we just use a standard mailing list (people will still being excluded or having things sent to the wrong address--when they all sign up with the mailing list, it's their damn fault if they put the wrong address in).

Alright, my mistake.

weird, i never even tried or noticed that the group names could pop up. i guess i never started typing the beginning of the names. what annoys me is i've created labels "Business" etc, and then i went to create a group for people and it's taken. that -really- bugs me, since i have used all the common names (business, friends, family) for labels already... it would be nice if they could figure out how to decouple those.anyway, i've learned something new! i wanted small group mail capabilities (so i could email everyone in a certain group) and it was there the whole time. crazy.

Wow, thanks. Who knew that English (UK) was a completely different language from English (US)?
