GROUPS

13.1 GENERAL

It is often necessary to send a message to a group of people within

a company or an organization. Such a group could be the members

of a department (Sales department, service department, etc.) or

members of a research team within the research department. When

a group list is defined, a message can be sent once, yet reach all the

members of the group.
