So if your server supports plussing, you can configure "[email protected], [email protected]", if you own the entire domain, you can configure "[email protected], *[email protected]". _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list List help: http://lists.ranchero.com/listinfo.cgi/email-init-ranchero.com
