hey chang:

this hook is called when the include/exclude list of groups/mailings is displayed. i.e. this is the list of groups SHOWN to the user, and then the user selects.

how do u know its a bulk mailing?  can u just remove that group from the above list

hey chang:

i dont think alterMailParams is a good spot

if we think of:

hook_civicrm_mailingGroups(&$form, &$groups, &$mailings)

as the pre hook (i.e. before the groups are selected)

we can potentially also invoke it, after the groups are selected. To avoid hook proliferation, we could potentially change the signature to:

hook_civicrm_mailingGroups(&$form, &$groups, &$mailings, $type = 'pre' )

and invoke the same function after

the format of the arrays change when $type = 'post' and they are more of how u expect them

$groups = array( 'include' => array( .. ), 'exclude' => array( ... ) );

wanna submit a patch for 3.4? update the docs etc

thanx
