Thanks for the script, I will give it a try. I was just reading the other day about a plig in framework for Applescript that allows it to talk to sqlLite, which is a rather fast free OSS database that runs really well on OS X. To maintain this list of users in this database would in theory be of little challenge. In my tests sqlLite is faster at a selects that mySql on the same hardware, it is just not nearly as scalable. This still leaves the trouble of auto rule generation. I guess I will have to wait for AS to support that, unless AS could simply be used to move the messages as well. Kind of getting complicated and large at this point. I will play with your script and see if it can not help me out, thanks. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
