I totally have the Incompetence - Electronics flaw.

Near the upper right corner of the screen is "New Messages". Click on that.

Cool. thanks.

But my question probably wasn't clear, sorry.

Once I am on my messenger page and I have clicked "Compose New Message" and there is a shiny blank message form thing, at the top is a field for "Recipient's name".

No problem so far.

But is it possible to send the same message to two recipients, like cc on an e-mail?

Not easily to my knowledge. The way I've done it in the past is similar to FWDing an email. After sending the message, go to your Sent folder and click on the message, then Quote message and send it to the next person. Alternately, you compose your message, Select All, Copy. Send the message, then compose a new one, Paste and send to the second person.

I tried putting a semicolon or a comma between names, like an email utility but it only sends to the first person in the list.

Sorry... "CC". I read too quickly. Yes, just add one name per line in the CC box.

@Bishop - Thanks! Been too long…

@Redjack - Okay, I swear I am not trying to be annoying, but I've got a new message sitting here in front of me in another window, and I can't find a CC box to put one name per line in.

I've got Recipient's Name, then Message Title, then a tool bar and then the message field.

Is there a button I should be using to make the CC box appear?

Redjack
My screen looks like this *this*?
adamu
Whoa!!!

How can I get a cool screen like that?

When I hit Compose New Message, I get what you have MINUS everything between Recipient's Name and Message Title. I also don't have the cool drop down box just to the right of Recipient's Name.

Is it maybe possible that as an admin you have cooler stuff?

Or is there something I can do to get that cool CC-capable screen too?
Redjack
Well, I've confirmed that it is only displaying for moderators. I'm not finding where in the code it is discriminated.
adamu
Weird cuz Bishop doesn't seem to have it.

Anyway, no worries. Rank has its privileges!

At least now I know I wasn't just stupidly missing it.

If you figure out how to spread the functionality wealth, it would be convenient, but not a super big deal.

Thanks very much!
Redjack
Traced it out. Try now.
adamu
Sweet!

You are the man.

Very much appreciated.
