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"
