Distribution lists
If you need to send messages frequently to a fixed group of people, you can define
a distribution list for that purpose. You can save to the distribution lists contacts
stored both in the phone’s and in the SIM card’s memory. Note that the phone
sends the message separately to each recipient on the list. Therefore, sending a
message using a distribution list may cost more than sending a message to one
recipient.
Make sure that the contacts that you want to add to the distribution lists are
saved in the phone’s internal contact memory.
Distribution lists use shared memory, see
