You can define whatever rules you like. When you say "outside of SM" you are not making any sense. Why do you need to "poll the directory"? Sounds like you need to read a little bit (try google) about how a mail server works. SM is just a client for the mail server (specifically the IMAP server portion of the email system). - Paul ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf -- squirrelmail-users mailing list List Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Archives: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=2995 List Info: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
