Also have a look at the Send module, I think it's called. It's a more robust
emailing system that a lot of other stuff is built off of. I've not used it,
but it could be useful.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea,
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas
Jefferson
