Well that sounds like it could work, but might be tough for me. The only perl I know is in a strand in my wife's jewlery box. :-) I don't know any programming, guess I should learn sometime except there is never any time. You are only using the perl script to look at the to: address and then compare it with an external list and then pass or fail..right?
Scott, any chance of doing this with the existing filters or adding a location - To: for the filter to look? Or possibly getting a blacklist To: function? I would like to keep this as simple as possible.

Yes, but I believe it would require a custom external test. As far as I know there is no declude test that traps on TO address. I have something along your idea working like this: 1) in .CFG file I define my test as a perl program: MyTest external nonzero "C:\perl\bin\perl.exe C:\MyTest.pl" -1000 0 The -1000 is used to prevent the WEIGHT test from being triggered. 2) in .junkmail file I define my action which is ROUTETO but could be DELETE if you wanted. MyTest ROUTETO [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3) My Perl program checks the TO address and fails if it is not in a list. In your case you would want to fail if it was in a list I believe. Now when I deployed my test I could not pass parameters to the external test so I had to read the ENVELOPE file for the recipient TO address. In version 1.62 the ability to send parameters was added so now you could pass %ALLRECIPS% to the program and avoid reading the ENVELOPE. DS> What about a blacklist recipient function? Again as far as I know that is not possible. It is possible to whitelist a recipient.
