My understanding of this functionality is that it allows users to create a template for a mass mail event where values (such as recipient names and other recipient-dependent data) are substituted from a data source. It is useful functionality; but it is a bit beyond the capabilities of “just” a MUA because it requires knowledge of the data source. BCC could only substitute in the most trivial of use cases. It does seem like the sort of functionality that would be a good candidate for a plug-in. -- Braden McDaniel <bra...@endoframe.com> _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
