Looking for a way to export Outlook distribution list toGmail? It’s time to discover how to do it since copying and pasting the same email addresses repeatedly until everyone gets your message is unproductive.
Microsoft Outlookhas the ability to create a contact group (formerly known as a Distribution List) from yourContacts list, and conveniently store that list in the Contacts folder.
Then, you can use it to send the same email to multiple people – a project team, your coworkers, or simply a group of friends. Or you canshare the entire contact groupwith other users, and they, too, can do the same.
Gmail‘s contact manager cannot import distribution groups from Outlook contacts, but you can set up a different email distribution list from anyemail client. This way, you make sure everyone stays in the communication loop.
Remember that exporting your Outlook Distribution List to Gmail is a four-step process. Don’t hesitate to read the instructions thoroughly before applying these directions.
How can I export Outlook Distribution List to Gmail?
1. Save Outlook Distribution List as Text file
2. Open the Text file in Microsoft Excel
3. Save the Excel file as CSV file
4. Import CVS files into Gmail
Some people want to be addressed personally and don’t fancy being lumped into a huge group. Don’t worry about that. A personalized email for an entire group solves the problem, so don’t give up on exporting your Outlook Distribution List toGmail.
