The Enhanced-List Application (ELA) provides the following features:
Up to 1500 recipients can be contained in an enhanced-list.
Up to 100 enhanced-lists can be created on an Communication Manager Messaging system.
Changes in an enhanced list propagate to all lists that refer to the changed list.
Access to enhanced-lists is possible from anywhere within the Communication Manager Messaging network (standard ICommunication Manager Messaging mailing lists are accessible only to those subscribers with mailboxes on the same machine as the lists).
Messages can be delivered to local and remoteCommunication Manager Messaging, email, and remote AMIS preadministered subscribers.
Messages can be delivered across domains from an email trusted server to Communication Manager Messaging. This kind of delivery enables email subscribers to access the enhanced-lists.
With ELA, you can:
Distribute messages to a targeted audience.
Create a list of people to whom you send messages frequently. Then send all these people the same message by entering one enhanced-list address.
Centralize messages in one Communication Manager Messaging mailbox.
Select one office as your primary location. Then, create an enhanced-list at each secondary location that has as its only member the number of your primary office location. When a mailbox at a secondary location receives a message, ELA puts it into the mailbox for the primary office.
Forward messages to support staff automatically.
If you frequently forward incoming messages, create an enhanced-list mailbox that automatically forwards messages to other subscribers. These subscribers can review the messages and then respond to them as they normally would.
Nest (or embed) enhanced-lists.
A list with 1500 addresses can be a list contained within another list. Thus, a subscriber can record a message, address it to the parent enhanced-list, and send it to nearly 150,000 peoplejust as easily as if the message were being sent to only one person seated at the next desk.
All subscribers administered in Communication Manager Messaging (including email and remote subscribers) can send messages to the recipients in enhanced-lists. Or, you can administer your system to allow only selected subscribers in your Communication Manager Messaging network access to the enhanced-lists.
