    Is it possible to 'reply' or 'send' to multiple people at once?

    ie: To: Digital Man; echicken; some-other-dude ??


    My doctor said I have the body of a 25 year old ... and the mind of a 10 :-/

    When you reply to a message, I suppose you could manually type all the names in
    the input box (if they'll fit).

    But the name input box seems to be fairly small though (not sure if multiple names would fit easily). And when someone does a new-to-you scan with Synchronet, I'm not sure if Synchronet does an exact name match or if it would match their name when multiple names are specified.

    Testing nightfox's premise ... :-)

    Nah, it didn't show up as a new-to-me message, so I guess that answers that question. I wonder if that could be added as a feature?

    There's the bulk mail feature and exec/bulkmail.js. No built-in way to use it for msg replies though.
