You can't use the FP form processor extension since this requires email to go to
the "owner" of the domain/site and it only accepts one address;

However there are other scripts on the web (www.hotscripts.com is one of my
frequently used sites for excellent scripts - there are plenty of "form
processor" scripts for all languages - PHP, ASP, Perl/Cgi etc, depending on your
server.

What you would do is get one of those scripts and then for the "TO" field in your
html form make radio button group called "To" and then each would have a value
such as "Manger", "Personnel", "Accounts", "Administration" etc.

you would put their emails in the "value" field such as

<input type="radio" name="Email_to" value="admin@yoursite.com">Email
Administration

etc - follow that basic rule above. "Email_to" would be whatever the script
requires that fieldname to be.

You could also do the above with a dropdown list, having their names and emails
listed in a field called "Email_to" (or whatever the script requires for that
fieldname).

This will only send a single message to individuals. I don't know how if you
wanted to send multiple copies to several people - perhaps use the above method
of radio buttons but use checkboxes so you can select multiple people; or use the
drop down list but choose multiple select from the field properties.

Hope this assists you.
