Right.

Thats perfect.

How do you define "other bounces"? Would a normal e-mail sent to the
address go into this category?

In that case, it doesn't work exactly like I want it to - normal e-mails
sent to the address should not be changed, they should just be "bounced"
to a defined address so he/she can take care of replying to the e-mail.

Thanks.

- Morten.
