[Zope] Re:Sendmail Error.It works for me.

[Paul Zwarts]

The only thing to consider is whether you want each user to know what other users the mail was sent to. You can put the whole
string in the bcc column to initiate it as one call to the mail server, but show each person they were bccd OR you can use the
<dtml-in> loop over the whole sendmail block so each person is mailed individually. Its pretty much a breach of company/client
trust to allow clients to see what other clients are in the list, pending the type of information sent. Only problem with
<dtml-in is large batches will eventually raise an error if too big. I think you can bypass that by writing it into an external
script.

Cheers,
