That is similar to what I do to announce the Warpdoctor meetings.  I
have a created a separate address book for the addresses I want to send
the announcements to.  Then I use the Edit Filter Action "Distribute to
Address Book" and specify the above address book as the target.  It
works great, and is very reliable.

It takes very little time to send, so I don't think it would be a
problem with a dial-up connection.  I have cable, so I can't say for
sure.

Tip:  There is nothing to prevent some or all of the addresses in the
address book from being the addresses of mail lists (e.g.
pmmail-list@blueprintsoftware.com).  In that case you can get a two
dimensional "explosion" of your messages. :-)

HTH,

Walter
