h2. History
By 1990, a large number of systems, both entertainment and customer support, had grown very large and had attracted a large customer base. In addition, businesses were purchasing [The Major BBS|gcomm:TheMajorBBS] as its central office network system. Getting information to large numbers of users at once, and targeting the right users, had become difficult. {nl:QuickMail} was [Galactic Innovations|MoonshaeTelecomm]'s solution to e-mail mailing list management, both for system operators, and for customers and users of the systems.
After the [Galacticomm|gcomm:Home] purchase of [Galactic Innovations|MoonshaeTelecomm] in December 1990, {nl:QuickMail} was not sold. {nl:QuickMail}, therefore, had a very short commerical lifetime.
h2. Utility Information
This enhancement to the electronic mail service of [The Major BBS|gcomm:TheMajorBBS] allows messages (and attached files) to be copied automatically to "distribution lists" of users. Each user can have his/her own personal list as well as using lists defined by the Sysop. An added feature allows a message to be copied to all users.
