Mark,

Sorry about taking so long to answer your question.  Been busy and way
behind on the ARS List.

The notify filter is responsible for chopping the list at 255
characters.  We currently use two solutions.

The first is as Lisa mentions and pushes the data to a separate form
with one record per email address.  The notify is done from this second
form.

The second is by pass the notify filter and perform a direct push to the
AR System Email Messages form.  It's a little tricky with templates but
I have it worked out if you need additional details.

Subject: Filter Guide Question

Hi All,

I have a situation where the email addresses from the customer contact
list is populated in the ticket and on open, update, close a notify
filter is used to send an email to each contact. These contact lists
have grown quite large. I started noticing email errors where the list
was getting chopped at 255 characters. The field in the ticket is large
enough and so is the To field in the AR System Email Messages form. On
further investigation found that the User Name in the Notify has a 255
limit. So that is the bottleneck.

Is there a way to sent up a filter guide, that walks through the list of
email addresses (they are separated by a semi-colon), sending out
individual emails rather than the one big blast currently used?

ARS 6.3 patch 20
SunOS 5.9
Oracle 9.2

Thanks
Mark
