GroupWise wish list

[Jane Fox]

If only we could retrieve a file into To: (or CC: or BC:) that would 
also work. When you Retrieve it always go into the body of the msg. Then
you must cut/paste to To:.
     It's on my wishlist, too.

But try to understand my users, who just used to cut and paste those
lines into a file, that could be used over and over again by typing
@filename into/at the To: field.

Hmm, if I copy your list into the Clipboard and then send or reply, I
can paste all the names into the TO field.

Thanks for this, but #3 is not that easy:

I have users who get mail messages with the following imbedded within
the message

user1 at site1.domain 
user2 at site1.domain 
user3 at site1.domain 
user1 at site2.domain 
user2 at site2.domain 
user3 at site2.domain 
user1 at site3.domain 
user2 at site3.domain 
user3 at site3.domain 

The user then wants an easy way to mail all these people, with Pegasus,
and even my old VAX mail software you could point the To field at an
external text file containing 1 address per line. So a simple cut and
paste would make the above usable.

Let's see here....

#1 & 2: Goto www.nexic.com and check out Symphony as I do know it will

handle the first 2 items.
#3: Dist Lists can be saved into a NAB file.
#4: Can be done with a C3PO that is avail on www.gwmag.com (pretty sure

it's there).
#5: won't happen: all non Win32 development efforts are centered on 
improving WebAccess; the 5.2 version clients are still avail but 
development has ended on those.
#6: I dunno as it works for me.
#7 & 8:  I'll defer as my love-hate relationship with GWIA is right now
in 
the "hate" side :-).
#9: The XML-back-end in BulletProof should allow this to be easily
added.


>1) More than one signature, prompt at send
