Maybe someone should mark this date on the wall... but I do have to come to Marc's defense on that point. ;-) He *did* specify that [his routers require] the folder must already exist - i.e. had been manually created in advance. So NO - new arrivals would NOT create a folder, and even the standard 'require verify = recipient' *might* also reject on-existent ones. Otherwise queue and not deliver. (see below). The idea is not new or original, (been used by others for years in multi-user environments), but his way of symlinking et al, might be. W/R pass/fail on verifying the recipient ... that depends on parts we have not been shown, i.e. entire router chain AND/OR other means of vetting (DB, flat file, etc.) not having a 'leak' at any point.
