Hi,

Type SBWP~~>Select "Environment Lists from the menu~~>Press Create button will take you to creating distribution list. You can create distribution list as shared or private.

Once you have created the distribution list you can send mails using


    call function 'SO_DLI_READ_API1'
      exporting
        dli_name                   = soid-objnam  " << distribution list name
        shared_dli                 = 'X'
      tables
        dli_entries                = i_distlist
      exceptions
        dli_not_exist              = 1
        operation_no_authorization = 2
        parameter_error            = 3
        x_error                    = 4
        others                     = 5.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
    else.
      loop at i_distlist.
        if i_distlist-member_adr is initial.
          move i_distlist-member_nam to i_user-bapibname.
          call function 'BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL'
            exporting
              username = i_user-bapibname
            importing
              address  = wa_address
            tables
              return   = i_return.
          move wa_address-e_mail to wa_receiver-receiver.
          append wa_receiver to i_receiver.
        else.
          move i_distlist-member_adr to wa_receiver-receiver.
          append wa_receiver to i_receiver.
        endif.
      endloop.
    endif.

After you have all receivers from the distribution list and their email addresses.

Then using SO_OBJECT ***** function module you send mail to distribution list members.
