   Nope, it doesn't.  Writing a message to All in WINServer is like write a   
   message to ALL in a FidoNET echo.  a cc is not sent out to all your users.    
   Most BBS packages have this feature.  I left a message on the WINServer   
   listserver and what I found out is that I would need to buy the wcReports   
   package.  Santronics, or Mustang Software, made a choice at some point to   
   spread needed features over 2, 3 or 4 different programs so that a SysOP was   
   forced to buy 2, 3 or 4 different programs.  I have spent soooooo much money   
   over the years supporting Santronics.... I am just not going to spend an   
   other dime so that I can cc a message to all my users.   
      
   Anyway, Thanx
