Maybe so but at the same time I dont realy think of a webmail client as
needing such features as that is a more intensive function. I would
expect a contact manager to do such things or outlook. Also if it is
realy required you could always write a custom method to do it. We have
built an interface for user management along with the ability to create
mailing lists through our website that generates the needed steps for
the mta to handle such things.
