This feature has not yet been fully implemented, but I'm sure that it's broken in Linux. (I really should have a test Windows machine.)

This feature is in bbs/multmail.cpp.

Ah nice, ok, good to know. I remember having this feature on old school WWIV back in the 90's and enjoyed having it to communicate to key co-sysops and sub moderators. Appreciate all you do. I'll check out bbs/multmail.cpp this weekend.

A quick test of /E on Weather Station shows that it worked on WWIV 4.x. multmail.c was introduced in WWIV 4.12.

Yeah feature would be a nice to have especially if one is experimenting with running WWIV as a network hub and would like to mass netmail multiple nodes; or as a sysop if they wanted to multi-mail more than one user. Not urgent just a nice request. I'm beating up the issues page as I stress test using every WWIV feature ;)
