I don't use stream_by_recipient() and never have. Here's my understanding, though... If stream_by_recipient() returns false, there was only one user, so stream_by_recipient() did nothing and the filter runs as normal. If there are multiple recipients, then stream_by_recipient() resends the original message to each recipient individually, and your filter should terminate. You'll then see the new messages in separate invocations of your filter. >> Alternatively, you can do all the work yourself, and only selectively >> resend when necessary.

(but that resends immediately the ORIGINAL > message) Until a few weeks ago, yes. We were adding a header in some cases. So what we did was: if everyone wants the header, add it, and we're done. If some recipients want the header and some don't, resend the (original) message to those who *don't*, remove them with delete_recipient(), and add the header. So in your case, you would resent to u...@domain.org, delete_recipient(u...@domain.org), and then add the boilerplate. We're now doing more extensive modifications, so I have re-implemented resend_message() with my own code to modify the message as appropriate. -- Richard _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
