Discussion Boards

I am running FP 2003 on our intranet server and would like
to know if there is any way to get the discussion board
application to send an automatic email to each member of
that discussion board whenever a new post is made.

I'm going to put a post i saved below. It's copied and pasted so read it
from the bottom up:

It's the same webbot code you get from a form when you set it to send the
form by Email
The DW doesn't include that option but on most servers set w/ Email
transport the FP SE will support the added code

You can only have the discussion web send an email to the web site owner
whenever a new post is created, not to all users of the discussion web.
