HPDesk will only send a message to correct addresses.  If some of the
addresses in a message are incorrect, HPDesk will only mail the message
to the correct addresses.  HP BRW-Desk/XL will print the addresses to
which the message was sent, and the incorrect addresses (to which the
message was not sent) on the delivery audit trail.
