Temporary removal from contact groups

[Fred]

I have created contact groups but if I don't want all in the group to get a
particular email how do I remove unwanted names without permanantly removing
them from the group. In Outlook Express I could set up mailing lists (contact
groups) and select from them only the ones I wanted without changing the core
list. Also under OE I could group my mailing lists together at the top of the
email selection window. The email addresses would be under each group, easy
to get to that way. Can anyone help?

Contact groups in Windows Mail are not editable on the fly.
The ones in Windows Live Mail are, so I recommend you upgrade
to that: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

By "editable on the fly", do you mean that the contact group will be edited,
or that in Windows Live Mail I can choose from within an existing group those
who will/will not receive an individual e-mail?

e.g. I have a group called Family.
I recieve a really good political zinger from Auntie Jane (part of my Family
group).
I want to forward it to everybody, BUT:
I don't want to return it to Auntie Jane and clutter her mail box (pet
peeve),
I had better not forward it to Dad because he'll disinherit me.
If I edit-on-the-fly in Windows Live Mail, will Auntie Jane and Dad be
deleted FROM MY FAMILY GROUP, or simply FROM THIS MAILING?

It will delete those recipients simply from that mailing.
The Group will stay intact.
