First, thanks for bumping the CC limit to eight. Much appreciated.

What's not so appreciated is having to type all those names in every time I hit reply. :/ Unless I'm missing something, there's no shortcut to do it, and it doesn't happen by default.

Would it be possible, then, to add a 'reply all' button to the options for PMs? It would have to respect (i.e., not include) BCCs, but all recipients and CCs could be on it.

    Just re-noting this. I will be hosting a Phalla game in a couple of weeks, so I have a slight interest in whether this is able to happen or not. :)

    It seems feasible to implement, but not within a couple of weeks. I have at least 3-5 things on the todo list that I would list higher priority than this, and I'm out of town most of this week, to boot.

    Copy/paste replaces the ; with , instead. I haven't tried sending a PM like that to see if it would work or not yet.

    Not for me, for the players. Handy for network-setting-upping, so on.

    There's no need to rush to a fix, I just think it's useful and was kind of surprised the software would let you configure an amount of users to send to, but not have a button to reply to all of them. :)

    If you have a network to set up, you could just set up a mailing list. You don't even need special software - most e-mail clients will let you e-mail as many people as you want at once.

    Players already set up proboards and what-not.

    Don't get hung up on Phalla being the only reason this is useful. It is just as relevant if you are having a discussion with, say, two or three people and want to reply to all of them.
