…assuming I can figure out who all to write too.
We had a rather large number of people sign up for various volunteer shifts this last weekend. I can tell exactly how many shifts were signed up for, though it will take a bit of time to identify each person by the name they signed up under, and pull up an e-mail address, and get an e-mail sent off for them. It might be easier if I were to script it, but at the moment I don’t have a system I can send scripted e-mail messages from. Fortunately I should be able to get everything out of the web pages I need to identify what shifts people signed up for, and from there I can attach names, so then I just need to sort by name, then add e-mail addresses, and I should be able to mostly cut and paste into e-mail messages to each person.
Well, I can hope anyway. I just spent something like 2 hours formatting the web pages, and adding the requests. So another 4 hours sounds about right for pulling everything back to a point where I can send e-mail.
Then comes the sending e-mail.
I think I’m going to go get some sleep. Good night everyone.
