[Building Sakai] About mailsender in sakai 2.6 - proof of mailsender recipients

[Robert E. Long]

We had the same request here @ SVSU. The only difference is we use  
mailtool instead of mailsender.

What I did to enable this is to loop through the sending process again  
if 'Send Me a Copy' is checked, but stripping out all other email  
addresses but the sender's, putting them into an array, and adding an  
area below the message that lists the recipients names and email  
address from that array I created. Only the sender gets the list of  
recipients this way. All attachments are also included when being sent  
to the sender.

I am sure the process would be similar in mailsender.

Hope this helps.
