So in other words, If I have mailboxes with forwarding on them Spam will still get through.

Is this the correct >logic, or am I missing something? Very close. The forwarding is actually handled by IMail after the E-mail is processed by Declude, so there is no evidence of forwarding when Declude sees the E-mail. >Is there a way around this, such as once the message is moved then it is no >longer forwarded, or that an internal message (the FWD message that gets >processed by the SMTP-FWD) gets scanned by the Junkmail?
