As I think through this further, what files within the maildir are updated at delivery? Off hand, I'd say maildirquota... Other files? They would have the potential for server-server conflict's so I want to know what to test. jerry ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
