When I have a group of contacts open and I would like to
send a new message I right click on the contact and it
gives me the option to send a new message. I would like
to send this same message to several people in the
contacts folder. If I click the "to" button I can bring up
the contacts as an address book but these are not sorted
in a way to make the selection process easy. Is there a
way to get a new message to several people in a contact
folder at the same time?

Select the contacts, then choose Actions | New Message to Contact.

Create a Category fofr the contacts that you want to
combine, view your contacts in Categories, then drag the
category title over to the inbox icon. Let go. A new e-
mail should open with all the names in it. If you don't
want them to see eachother - select the names in the To:
box, cut, then past them into the BCC: box.
If not using categories, click on each contact you want
to send to, hold the Ctrl key as you click each name -
drag as above.
