Abstract

An improved messaging system for transmitting message information to a plurality of recipients comprises the steps of: sending a first message including the predetermined message information to a first recipient address of a first recipient on a list of recipients; updating, after the completion of the step of sending, the list of recipients to create an updated recipient list, the updating being implemented independently of the first recipient at the first recipient address; and sending a second message, including the predetermined message information to an address corresponding to a next recipient selected from the updated recipient list. The method can iteratively repeat the steps of updating and sending the message to thereby transmit messages to a plurality of recipients with the list of recipients being dynamically updated after each message is sent. The recipients may have an opportunity to modify or add to the message before the message is sent on to the next recipient.
