Thread: Progress on Top-Five response:
I'm sorry to report that it does not, in fact, work. I tried mailing Citizens and it seemed to work, but by the fourth person I asked for receipt confirmation, I'd already found someone ON the Citizen Report, but who did not receive the mail.
This is as disappointing as prior attempts to manually update and use buddy list groups to track all citizens in a major commercial metropolis from day to day. The recipient field of the email truncates the list when you try to select a large group of buddy list recipients, so there's no telling who got the mail and who didn't. Trying to do it manually 10-12 people at a time is not an option. Even sorting a large friend list or mailbox can hang the client.
We need civic mass mail that actually works.
And a previous poster was absolutely right about the 3-weeks-inactive rule. It threatens us without offering any means to know if our citizens are inactive or not, and for how long. This is a whammy.
