I already created the first page of my wizard to select the MailList Name and Status and in the second page select a few contacts displayed using the enhancedlist ie "<apex:enhancedList type="Contact" customizable="true" height="300" rowsPerPage="10" id="AccountList"></apex:enhancedList>". Now my question is how add the selected contacts into my junction object MailList History, Plz provide a code sample i have pasted my code sample below Plz help me ....

This would be a good use of the Standard List Controller that is documented here.

 

I think the best solution for you is to create a custom list button on your contact list that refers to your Visualforce page (your visualforce page must leverage the standard list controller in order to be available as a target for a custom list button -- your extension can provide all of the custom logic you need).  The selections you make inside of your enhanced list will be passed as the record set when you click on your custom list button.
