Remove names from a contact group

Applies To: Outlook 2016 , Outlook 2013

Getting email addressed to a group you’re not part of anymore can be annoying. To make sure you don’t do that yourself, you can remove names from a contact group (formerly called a “distribution list”) like this:

1. On the Navigation bar, click People to view your contacts.
   
2. Double-click the contact group to open it.
   
3. Select the names you want to remove from the group, and then on the Contact Group tab, click Remove Member.
   
4. Click Save & Close.
