Messenger Tabs - Aliases List
The Aliases list allows you to create a single reference
name for a group of individuals. By sending a message to that
reference name or alias, all the individuals assigned to that
alias will receive the message. For instance, you may wish to
create an alias for the individuals in the Marketing
Department of your company or you may wish to create an alias
for those individuals on your In/Out List that share the
common interest of hiking.
To create an Alias:
- At the Name field, enter the reference for your Alias.
For example "hikers".
- At the Members field, enter the names of the members,
separated by commas, that you wish to assign to the Alias.
For example, "john,sara,susan,edward".
- Click on the Set button to save the alias and have it
displayed on the Aliases list and in the "To" field of the
Send Message tab for future use.
Remember to separate the individual names with
commas; it is a required convention.
Time saver tip! You can build aliases even faster by using
the "In/Out", "Send" and "Contacts" tabs by doing the
following:
- Left-click on the Contacts' In/Out tab
- Ctrl-left-click on each of the contacts you want in
your alias
- Right-click on one of the selected contacts and select
the "Send" item (The "Send" tab will now appear)
- Highlight the contents of the "To:" field
- Right-click on the highlighted contents and select the
"Copy" option
- Left-click on the Contacts' Aliases tab
- Right-click on the Member(s) field and select the
"Paste" option
To edit an existing Alias:
- Click to select the Alias, make your change in the Name
or Members field, then click on the Set button.
To delete an existing Alias:
- Click to select the Alias, then click on the Delete
button.
