I think I'm slowly starting to clue in a little. Please correct me if I am wrong. From what I read in your response, the assumptions being made are: a) the user sending the original email to assphelp would be connected directly to my org's mail server (internally for example), thereby not at all being processed by ASSP. b) all email from the mail server is sent through ASSP before getting to the internet. But according to the Wiki Configuration page, the flow I read is the following: Internet -> ASSP -> Mail server -> Clients and Clients -> ASSP -> Mail server -> Internet which would imply that any email sent by the client would be first processed by ASSP anyhow. In which case, even if the email was addressed to assphelp @ mydomain.com, it would be caught by ASSP first, wouldn't it? Thanks!
