emails to changing list

So I have this database of people. People have different rolls.

I would like to send out roll based emails (so the list changes).

This wouldn't be an issue at all, except that sometimes I want my users to be able to send attachements.

I'm a little concerned about uploading files to the server (even though access would be restricted), that can get really cluttered. (And quite honestly, I have no idea how to do it - that's less of an issue - or whether or not it's a good idea)

So, I'm thinking along the lines of giving them an email "popup". I know how to do this in HTML, but, stylistically, is this a good idea with 100+ email addresses?

Is there a better way? Should I go with uploading attachments to the server (if so, how do you do that)

Thanks for the thoughts!

can you explain what you mean by "email popup"?

If you want to upload files, check which upload components are supported by your host (they should have sample code). If they dont support any, come back and i'll show you a pure asp solution.

Well, you know when you do an HTML email call it opens an email window? (thus popup) That's kind of what I'm looking for.

I'll check with our tech guy on file uploading. Thanks!

I talked to my tech guy and he said "no go" on uploading files to the server.

so I guess I need that pure ASP code method.

Thank yee!
