Outlook will let you create "Distribution Lists", which sounds like what you
are looking for. Individual recipients can be members of multiple
distribution lists.

No...I don't think so. What I'm doing now via fax, I'd LIKE to do via
email INSTEAD (I think). But where my fax software allows me to "group"
recipients (and put them into multiple groups if necessary), it doesn't
appear that either of the two email clients I've seen (Eudora and Outlook),
can let me organize recipients the same way.
Are there any email programs/clients that DO allow grouping of recipients,
as I do now with my fax software?
THIS is what I'm asking. :) I don't where else to ask, or how else to ask.
Thanks.
