That's what I want--a simple mailing list, or 'group,' created from my
own Contacts Directory, so I can just click one or two keys and send an
e-mail to many, many people. (Instead of adding dozens of e-dresses one
at a time).

It used to be simple to do this in old Outlook Express. In fancy
Outlook 200s, however, all I find is a lot of stuff about Merge Mail
and a lot of instructions re envelopes--real mail, in other words.

Simple instructions for this simple task much appreciated.

Outlook has always had the same ability. The counterpart to "groups" in OE
is Distribution Lists.
Not complicated at all: File > New > Distribution List...
Outlook has many better alternatives as well, but since you want to keep it
simple, just use DL's and complain back if they don't do what you want.
