Thanks for all the answers to this question. I will test Tobi's syntax (commas, no spaces), and let everyone know. The site has the latest MRTG and a known good SMTP server, so it should be a valid test.
Lyle and Steve are correct, distribution lists are a non brainer even in Windows. Or invoking Blat from batch files, my personal favorite. Plenty of solutions if the syntax ends up not working.

I have no idea about the syntax esp since you state this is on a Windows platform. I am not sure what underlying program/code is being called to perform this function.

It works correctly for one recipient, but it is breaking when I try a second address. I apologize for the mundanity of the question, but searching the list or on the web did not yield the proper syntax for more than one recipient, nor if it is possible. The obvious suspects were attempted an failed: spaces, commas and semi commas: ThreshMailAddress[_]= [email protected] [email protected] ThreshMailAddress[_]= [email protected] , [email protected] ThreshMailAddress[_]= [email protected] ; [email protected] None of the above worked. Thanks for any help.

It's easy to get past this on a linux/unix host running postfix or sendmail. Create a user and call it something like list1 and put a .forward file in that user's directory to forward to whomever you need. In a .forward file, one email address per line. If you need more than one set of lists, create a user list2 etc. Lyle
