I've thought about doing that but have not done it yet because we have so
many different combinations of notification groups.

I have thought of adding a "MailTo" in the email that would have the list of
contacts that I could build from, but that only lists groups that the
recipient is part of.

I have also thought of writing something like nan, that would gather
notifications and send every say 10-15 seconds anything that is older then
say 20 seconds, and group the email by body and subject, and lump the
contacts into the Cc field...
