Resolved: RE: mutiple addresses for one user account
Thanks everyone who replied, I was able to test yesterday and see that for us, either separator (comma or semicolon) worked, as you say.

I have good news with the Notify Filter bug. I did some testing on our 7.6.04 system and have found that it is no longer truncating To data to 256 characters in the Notify filters.

Actually that depends on how you are sending the messages. Since he is on Solaris, if he is using normal Unix methods of sending emails then he will want to use a comma as the separator (since that is the separator as defined by Unix sendmail type processes) and make sure the com.bmc.arsys.emaildaemon.CommaValidAddressSeparator=true is set -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Goodall, Andrew C Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 11:30 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: mutiple addresses for one user account It will work, use semi-colon, else the email engine may reject it unless you have it config'd to recognize commas.

mutiple addresses for one user account
Do any of you rely on the Email field on the User record allowing you to list multiple addresses? address1@fakeaddress, address2@fakeaddress (or maybe other separator like ;) I don't see a mention of it in the docs, but it seems to work on test. I don't want to reply on it if it's not an expected behavior, though. The reason: I need for a particular notice to some addresses to be sent as one email, not separate ones for each user.
