Any ideas on how to email multiple contacts
May 21, 2008, 10:06:57 am
I'm wanting to email multiple contacts that aren't part of the same group and have different last names, so when  I search they don't appear on the same page.  As soon as I click one name and then move pages to find the next contact, I've lost the first name I selected.  Is there any way, to choose multiple contacts without having them tagged or in the same group?  It seems tedious to have to create groups for everything under the sun.

I recall reading some discussion, perhaps a bug issue, that indicated there are problems with selecting contacts across multiple pages of a search result set. So I suspect the answer is no -- you can't currently achieve this without create a group, at least until the contact select across multiple pages is fixed.

This is slated to be fixed in the 2.2 release: http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-2681
