Also, cc:mail only permits the one address book for the network, centrally
administered (not user-modifiable), containing all known addresses. In our case
this would make an address book withover 5000 addresses (assuming we could find
gateways to our Vax and IBM mainframe systems). 

When I asked about mail withing a department, the salesthing suggested a
distribution list. When I asked about mail to individuals within a department,
he suggested individual single-entry distribution lists for each person in the
department.
