Not just this, but consider also the behaviour of the correspondent: here many people (including me) have either an personal account and an office alias, that is a virtual address with the name of the office that is routed to the person/s on duty at a certain time, and an easy interface to change the address in case of absence, so any messages go at least at two persons (one on duty on morning, the other in afternoon). Well, althought message are sent using as From the personal address of the sender and as reply-to tha office address, and people is usually told to use only the office addrress, at least 70% of message are sent to the personal addresses ! (PS: the policy here is that mail sent to personal addresses is personal, so if one sent an office inquiry to a personal address of someone on vacation, has to wait) -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
