Enhanced-List Application

2

Issue 1   July 1997 

Enhanced-List Application

The Enhanced-List Application (ELA) greatly expands your business’ capability 
to deliver messages to large numbers of recipients. A single enhanced list can 
contain 1500 addresses and you – the system administrator – can create up to 
100 such lists. Enhanced lists can be nested (or embedded) in each other, that 
is, a list (containing 1500 addresses) can be a member contained in another list. 
By doing so, your users can record a message, address it to the parent 
enhanced list, and send it to nearly 150,000 people – just as easily as if the 
message were being sent to a person 1 desk away. 

All users administered in AUDIX (including e-mail and remote users) can send 
messages to the recipients on enhanced lists, or you can administer your system 
to only allow selected users in your AUDIX network access to the enhanced lists.

ELA has the following characteristics: 

Up to 1500 recipients can be contained in an enhanced list (compared to 
250 addresses in a standard AUDIX mailing list.)

Up to 100 enhanced lists can be created on an I

NTUITY

 AUDIX machine

Nesting (embedding an enhanced list within another Enhanced List) 
enables a total recipient population of nearly 150,000

Changes in an enhanced list propagate to all lists that refer to the 
changed list

Access to enhanced lists from anywhere within the AUDIX network 
(standard AUDIX mailing lists are only accessible to those users with 
mailboxes on the same machine as the lists) 

Delivery to local and remote AUDIX users, administered e-mail users, and 
remote AMIS pre-administered users 

Cross-domain delivery from an e-mail trusted server to AUDIX. This 
enables administered e-mail users to access the Enhanced Lists

What ELA Can Do for You

ELA can:

Distribute messages to a targeted audience. 

You can create a list of people that you send messages to frequently. 
Then, you can send them all the same message by entering one 
enhanced-list address.

Centralize messages into one AUDIX mailbox.

First select one office as your primary location. Then create an enhanced 
list at each secondary location that has, as its only member, the number of 
your primary office location. When a mailbox at a secondary location 
receives a message, ELA puts it into the mailbox for the primary office.
