It would be great if the preview could also evaluate the first field ("Page containing list of pages to leave a message on:") and display the number of recipients the message will be sent to - just like it is already shown after the Send button is hit.
(And while we are at it, including the subject line in the preview could be useful, too.)

Isn't it already there? I see a level 2 header with the text that I inputted.

Yes, you're right - not sure why I didn't see that earlier. Disregard this afterthought then...
A big +1 for this idea.
Lego: could MassMessage quickly (i.e., on preview) give a more nuanced view of a potential input list. That is, instead of simply saying "43 targets", could it say "41 targets, 2 bad targets"? That would be even better.
I have a good idea on how to implement this, will upload something tomorrow.

Should be possible.
