Re: Questions

"...Why don't writers of email clients, and / or webmail clients put in place a sanity check, so that if you have more than (say) ten users in the to or cc fields, it asks you what the fuck you are doing..."

I must confess to not remembering the defaults (and being too lazy right now to Google) but Exchange mailtips has this sort of scenario in mind. It doesn't stop users from sending out but will pop up yellow or red message bars to tell you that you're possibly about to do something dumb.

Alas not many Exchange admins seem to be aware of them or use them to their full extent.

Oh and I just remembered they don't work at all when running offline/cached as they're generated by the server.
