There isn't anything built in, but there are a couple of work arounds. You have found one. Another one would be to repeat the send mail procedure for smaller sets of records. For example, instead of finding all current members, find all current members with names beginning with A-E, F-J, etc., to capture smaller sets of data. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
