Comment 1 Isaiah Weiner 2002-03-28 20:36:22 UTC
To be clear about "multiple selection from a system list", here's a scenario:

Cisco wants to update only a particular application (ClearCase, for example).  
So they use the System Search tool on the website to find which systems have 
ClearCase installed.  Then they select all those systems and work with them.  
The added functionality would fit into the next piece - in addition to 
upgrading the package on the system, if an email address existed inside of the 
system profile's "Notes" section (perhaps Subject: user contact, Note: 
user) a custom message could be composed and sent to each contact 
address.

Hopefully that more completely conveys the intention of the RFE.

Comment 2 Bret McMillan 2002-03-28 21:13:01 UTC
This sounds more like a server preference than something that should be tied to
system notes.

Would this solve Cisco's problem:  an email address per registered system that
will be sent email anytime someone schedules an action for that system through
the website?

This bug is old and crufty, closing.
