Not if it's a DIR-type "file".  See 4-6 of "Developing UniBasic

What causes them to want to email it somewhere other than the customer?

Can you change the program that sends the email to accept an override
one-time-only address?  Or put in some sort of debug/test switch that
would cause a copy of the email to go to a different address?

What about adding a field to the customer record "alternate email" and
if that is present, it gets used instead of the real email field?  At
least then you don't lose data.
