Yahoo! Mail's free email service provides an area to save and track Contacts. In the Contacts area, you can record email addresses, physical addresses, SMS and MMS numbers and phone numbers for each contact. However, Yahoo! Contacts has a few additional little-known features, such as the ability to create Contact Group Lists for the purpose of emailing a group of Contacts at one time. To create a Yahoo! Contact Group, you must first make sure each Contact already exists in your list of Yahoo! Contacts.
