 Sam,
Thank you very much for reminding us. :-)

I must admit to part of the blame for "the incident".
(I did quite a little bit of "fanning the flames")

I think we've all grown-up a little bit since then.

Some of the newer members might wonder: "Who is moderating the list now?"

Well, I think that most of us here would agree that we seem to doing
quite a good job of moderating ourselves.
(and when need be, I'm sure that Michael would step-in) :-)

 Now, so that this isn't completely off-topic.

We have now confirmed that v1.6* will only send to the first address on
any of these lines....
-To:
-CC:
-BCC:

(BCC: can be added into an Arachne .TBS file with a text editor and CORE.EXE
 will send to that address also)

 Untill we find the cause of this bug and get it fixed, we can compensate
by using the "@list" function.

Instead of "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Create a file in your Arachne main directory.
(the extension is optional. "list", "family",
 "friends", "anyname" will do just fine)

---list.txt---
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
______________

(each address on it's own line)

Now, use "To: @list.txt" and the message will be sent to all of the
addresses in list.txt

You may also place the file in some other directory and use it's
complete path........"To: @\addressb.ook\anyname"
