Ok. Gmail does have its shortcomings. Not a major one :)

Sent this feedback to the Gmail team -

--------------------------------->8---------------------------------
For the record, the browser is Firefox 0.8, but its irrelevant for the question.

Can you please provide an ability to group a set of contact email address?

I can use it for two purposes -

1. To group together friends, so that I can just type one address in the to field. This will be more like a mailing list.

2. To bunch together multiple email addresses of the same individual. Since one contact entry can point to only a single email address, I need a mechanism to link together all the email addresses of one individual.

Note that one email address could belong to multiple "groups".

cheers
Conrad
