I'm afraid the documentation is older than that particular
functionality, and could use some updating.
It may be that the current UI was designed to only send a certain
message once. Part of that is probably related to keeping track of
information about the sent message, though that isn't such a big deal
now that a full CommunicationEvent record is being kept instead of
just the association record to the ContactList that used to be used on
its own.
In other words, the constraint that was driving this limitation may
now be gone and it is probably an easy change to support that. I
apologize for the lack of additional details as I haven't actually
played with what kind of change would be required to do this.
