Generating MS SharePoint Notifications/Emails from MS Access

I have an MS Access database that I am using to send out notifications to distribution lists(generated from users linked to the MS Access record) through MS Outlook.

The warnings and waiting that Outlook has is getting to be cumbersome for the users so I was attempting to use SharePoint to generate and send out the notifications but I can't figure out how to use the distribution list created within MS Access in the SharePoint notification. I can only get it to send to Group Lists that I have previously created in SharePoint and that won't work since there are literally thousands of possible combinations that could get linked to a record.

Any advice on how I can either simplify the Outlook process or use SharePoint would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
