Sure. All you need to do is:

  1) Create an individual ELM alias for the each group member.

  2) Create a group alias which lists all of the individual aliases, separated
     by commas.

This is all explained in the "ELM Alias User's Guide". If for some reason
this is not available on your system (ask your admin), send me mail and I
will send it to you. Hope this helps!
