I don't think that's really the simplest way. To me, the simplest way to implement this functionality without disrupting/mangling delivery of messages would be to forward message bodies to a Program Alias that runs a filter for recipient addresses and sends off a one-line alert using IMAIL1. You could even use multiple PAs, one for each affected user, and eliminate the need to parse out the address (also eliminating the small amount false negatives due to the way that messages are passed out of the SMTP system). To increase manageability, though at the cost of processing time and resource use, you could 'Copy all Mail' to the Program Alias from the top. The most elegant way to implement the functionality would be through an alternate SendName. I would not recommend this route to a non-programmer, as you take on major responsibilities and run the risk of disrupting all mail delivery during development. -Sandy To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
