Granted, it isn't the most elegant or (I imagine) the most efficient way to do it; however, it gets the job done and doesn't cause sendmail on our mail server to puke. -Stephen Spencer Administrator Sunflower Datavision Lawrence, KS On Thu, 4 Sep 1997, Jason McKay wrote: > How do I make is possible for me to mail all my users.
