OVERVIEW
--------
The ADVIS Mailing List web part can be placed on a site/area together with
a contacts list view. It allows you to quickly send an e-mail to all 
currently shown contacts (filtered or unfilterd) in the connected list 
view or to all members of the site.


HISTORY
-------
V2.1.0.0/11.04.2006 - Changed the "site members" to include only the current
                      site's (web's) members instead of all root site users.
                    - Added a new property to switch this behaviour back to
                      include all site collection users.
v2.0.0.0/19.10.2005 - Strongly named the web part
                    - Some minor bug fixing and general improvements
V1.1.0.0/02.09.2005 - Added the feature to send an e-mail to all members
                      of the current site.
V1.0.1.0/13.06.2005 - Changed cc and bcc syntax from "mailto:&cc=..."
                      and "mailto:&bcc=..." to "mailto:?cc=..." and
                      "mailto:?bcc=...".
		    - Added about menu and version info in tool bar. 
V1.0.0.0/23.04.2004 - Initial release.


INSTALLATION
------------
1) Place MailingList_V2.1.0.0.cab somewhere on your SharePoint server
2) Run stsadm.exe to register the web part the way you like.
    i.e.
    STSADM.exe  -o addwppack -filename MailingList_V2.1.0.0.CAB -force -globalinstall
3) iisreset

REMARK: As V2.x is strongly named and V1.x wasn't, you can't do a simple
        upgrade from V1 to V2. But you can install V2 in addition to V1
        and then replace all occurences of V1 on the web part pages.
