Yep, it's a bit of a shame it can't be done, but i suppose it all helps to cut down on any chance of spam.

The only way to make it any easier is to cut and paste the text from a word document (or the first PM you type) into each message - but the adressee still has to be done the long way :(

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

I believe you could have also just hit back on your browser change the person you're sending to then hit send again.

As stated above this does stop people from spamming the whole board when not necessary. If its a message going to a lot of people that doesn't contain personal information or things not fit for public consumption, it can always be posted on the appropriate board.

for such things as roll bars or Pecos, then get or ask for their e-mail addresses. Don't forget, 50 messages in your inbox and you start loosing them!

Tony, some forums allow you to post to say 5 people simultaneously. Is this an option?

What part of 'No' did you not understand, Geoff?
