NOTE: We have a limitation on the number of recipients (not more than 50) per email, so it is not possible to send an email using the distribution list with 50+ added users. However, the lists with 50+ can be still used for scheduling meetings.

Once done, make sure to click on Create list button.

4. Now when composing new email, simply enter distribution list name in To field:
