The idea is to notify *all* operators or administrators that are
registered on the system.
Some of our customers are reprographics companies - they typically
will have a server controlling a dozen plotters or high-speed
printers, with several operators to keep the show running. Sending
one notification to an operators list is more efficient than sending
N notifications...
Similarly, an office might have several secretaries that handle
incoming faxes; they'll want to be notified when new faxes come
in (and the sender doesn't know the user name for the recipient)
