Builders recommend using the Brief Notification option when you
are sending notification to devices that have limited memory, such
as pagers and cell phones. If you want to notify multiple recipients,
you can use group mail lists defined on your mail server provided
that you append an at sign (@) followed by a valid domain.

Reference: Notification and Log Information for Unavailable Options
When
schedules with unavailable Task Types and/or distribution methods
are not permitted to run, error notification is triggered. The full
and brief notifications and the log report informs you that the
ReportCaster administrator or the owner of the schedule must change
the unavailable Task Types or distribution methods in the schedule.

schedules with unavailable Task Types or distribution methods are
permitted to run, normal job execution occurs and a message appears
in the log report indicating that your ReportCaster administrator
is allowing existing schedules using the unavailable Task Types
or distribution methods to run.
