Hey there

I had thought of a possible new feature and didn't know where else to post it. I assumed here was as good a place as any. : ) My thought was, it would be nice if when composing an e-mail to multiple people to that you could include a message to only select people on that it was to be delivered to. For instance: You create a e-mail to a co-worker and BCC your boss on it. However, you want to let your boss know in the body that he was only BCCed so that he doesn't respond to all. That is just on instance, but I could see it being very handy. In the end, the one e-mail would become to seperate e-mails... However, it would save the user the time of composing the 2 seperate e-mails. Just a thought. I appreciate your time

Many Thanks
Danny
 
Think that idea through a bit more - how would you as the user specify what
part of the message would be seen by a particular recipient? Something like
that would require a very complicated user interface, and just imagine the
potential for error - forgetting to make part of a message private (so
*everybody* sees something meant only for a single person) or forgetting to
make part of a message "public" (so only one person gets the complete
message, but everyone else has a piece missing). You're much better off
going to the trouble of typing two messages - at least then what you see is
what the recipient will see, with no uncertainty.
