Subject: Re: Send e-mail based on a hierarchy of attributes? 

Yes, this can be done. See below for an example configuration.

Attributes = entrytype, category
Options entrytype = routine{1}, problem{2}
Options category = software, hardware

{1} Email category software =
{1} Email category hardware =
{2} Email category software =
1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz
{2} Email category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn

Is there a way to distribute e-mail based on the consideration of several attributes and values?  A simple example:  attributes type and category have several different values, say, routine and problem for type and hardware and software for category, but one would only like messages sent when there's a problem to different sets of hardware or software types.  Thus:

Email

type routine   category hardware = no message

                        category software = no message

type problem  category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn

                         category software = 1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz
