Help on yelling		Organising people & events

 The "Send email" and "Send text" windows allow you to quickly communicate with people in your group.
 The text message is particularly useful when time is short e.g. when a game has been cancelled
 at short notice and you need to tell people not to drive to the game.

• Who do you want to contact?
  You can quickly send messages to various groups of people. The options are:
  
  1. Everyone in the group: Send the message to everyone in the group
  2. People rostered onto specific events: Send the message to everyone who is rostered onto the event(s) that you pick.
  3. People in specific categories: Send the message to everyone who is in the categories that you pick. This option is only available if People Categories are used by your group.
  4. Specific people: Send the message to the people that you pick.
  
  The "Pick people" button opens a sub-window allowing you to pick the event(s), categories or people.
  The "View people" button opens a sub-window allowing you to see the people you have selected.
  
  When you select an option, the area below is updated to show the number of people selected, and how many can be contacted via email and via mobile phones. Note that the person sending the message is not counted and will not be sent a message.
   
• Specify the message:
  Here you enter the message to send.
  
  Texts: The maximum length of a text message is set by telecommunications companies at 160 characters.
  Texts you send can say that they were sent from your mobile phone.
  Any replies to the text "yell" will then be delivered to your mobile phone.
  This ability only works in countries where the mobile phone companies support this feature.
  You must confirm that you want this to happen via a manual "registration" process.
   
• Email attachments:
  If you are sending an email, then you can optionaly specify one or more files to send with them email as attachments.
  The "Pick files" button opens a sub-window allowing you to pick the files.
