[gui-talk] I think Convio out foxed themselves.

Hi Gui-talk list, Ken here with a question.  I was wondering if anyone  
knew what the error is when this happens.  Today, I tried to send out race  for 
independence messages using the filter of fonor status.  I filtered  those 
who have not yet donated.  I typed the message and when I hit the  send 
button, it said error detected this doesn't appear to be a real email  address.  
It's almost as if the send too field doesn't even exist.   The send to 
field is for new recipients. but even if I enter into it, the same  error 
message happened.  So instead of using the send them a reminder I  used the 
conventional email link and added the addresses manually by selecting  them from 
the address book and hitting the add recipients button.  I've  sent an email 
explaining the problem to headquarters, but that still has me  baffled.  
Does anyone know what type of error is actually happening and is  there any way 
it can be corrected?  Does it have anything to do with the  upgrade of the 
site and the little Trash can graphic buttons that you can now  used to 
delete the contacts you don't want?  I can't tecnically send out  thank you 
emails to donors without going to everyone and deleting all but those  who 
should get a thank you.  Did convio do an upgrade that out smarted  themselves 
and make our race site to cute?  Were they trying to get to much  eye candy in 
to it?
