Hi Joe

This is a cut and paste of the reply sent to you in the Santronics List:

It would probably be best to follow it up there should you need to do
so.

---- Cut from SSI ----

Messages to ALL are not permitted in Conference: #0 via the
ANSI/Terminal interface.

Conference 0 is intended for Private EMail and To "ALL" Opens up the
risks of SPAM and Private Messages accidentally being sent to ALL.

The Capitalized "ALL" can be used in other Conferences as a valid Public
"TO ALL" message Address.

If you have a small user base you can create a Group Distribution List
and use it in association with Any Conference.

For Example:

A plain text file Group List:

 \wcat\disp\group1.lst

comprising a name on each line

 Bob Brown
 Jane Doe
 John Smith

Can then be used to Address a Message TO: GROUP 1

Which would send a CC Copy to users in the Distribution List Group 1

wcBASIC and the wcBASIC PLUS pack can if desired be used to completely
customize the behavior of the ANSI Mail Interface.
