Maybe use an attribute for that?

Like

Attributes = Author, ..., stagaire
Options stagaire = Jim, Joe, ...

So Rob can select a stagaire from the list, and the email contains this name.

Intersting question (meaning: I don't have an answer... (;-) )

The class which applies there is "attribvalue". You can increase the padding for
that class, but that only increases the space between all options and the cell
border, but not between them. I could put each MOption in a separate cell of a
subtable. Then one could increase the padding between them, but the layout would
be fixed, meaning that they are always left-to-right. As you can see in this
forum, the MOptions nicely place below each other if the screen is too narrow.
This functionality would be lost.

Maybe someone else has a clever solution?

Date is "date", and not "date-time" unfortunately. There is no way right now to
enter a time. I plan however to add a new format "datetime", which allows that
option. So stay tuned.

Stefan,

Oh. OK. I will keep tuned. It would be quite useful to have.

Unfortunately not. But your request is on the wishlist since some time, I added
your vote.

I tried to reproduce this problem, but everything was fine. This problem was never
reported by anyone else as well.

Can you send me one of this old xxxxxxa.log files which causes that crash, I can then fix
it in elogd.c ...
