| DESCRIPTION | Bulletins are 'Super' messages. Each Bulletin has a text and a subject on programmer entry points. FileMan sets up code that will issue a bulletin automatically when the special cross reference type is created. In either case the parameters that go into the text and/or the subject make each bulletin unique. just like a normal message. But embedded within either the subject or the text can be variable fields that can be filled in with parameters. There is also a standard set of recipients in the form of a Mail Group that is associated with the bulletin. Bulletins are processed by MailMan either because of a special cross reference type of FileMan or because of a direct call in a routine. The interface for the direct call is described in the documentation |
