    The idea is to notify *all* operators or administrators that are
    registered on the system.

    Some of our customers are reprographics companies - they typically
    will have a server controlling a dozen plotters or high-speed
    printers, with several operators to keep the show running. Sending
    one notification to an operators list is more efficient than sending
    N notifications...

    Similarly, an office might have several secretaries that handle
    incoming faxes; they'll want to be notified when new faxes come
    in (and the sender doesn't know the user name for the recipient)
