Ron,
Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, we do not want to forward the messages
themselves to all the users because they will have graphic images attached
to them. We don't need to have multiple copies of large graphic files on the
network. I knew that they could all monitor the mailbox, I was just hoping
that there was a way of notifying them without them having to monitor it.
Thanks.
