Guild-Wide Mass Messages

This is a feature request for guild members of particular trust or standing to be able to send a message to all members of a guild. The post boards are nice, but see little use, and do not seem to be regularly checked by members. By utilizing the mail system, all members are sure to at least be notified that there is a message waiting in their mailbox when they log in, and those with the Mail Alert option will be notified that way as well, resulting in increased communications.
Naturally, the usage would likely have to be monitored somewhat to prevent abuse and frivolous usage, so it may not be desirable to the GMs for this reason. I thought there to be no harm in requesting it, though.
A last-minute thought: It would be nice for certain guilds to be able to message their sister-guilds as well, such as Monastic Order and Knights Templar, or Udemi and Utasa.
This idea was spurred by the somewhat recent voicing of the desire by GMs that we player characters attempt to take more proactive and decisive action as active members of our guilds, instead of relying on the NPCs.
