A mail group address is a collection of email addresses of its group members. When a sender sends an email to the email group address, all group members can receive this email to achieve the effect of mass mailing. If the members of the mail group want to send mail or reply to the members of the mail group, just type the mail group address, and all members of the mail group can receive the mail, which is convenient for the members of the mail group to communicate with each other.
