Re: [IMail Forum] Rules ima

Undocumented feature...never thought of it like that.  Yeah, I wasn't planning on actually using what I found until I knew it was probably safe, which is why I posted the question to the forum. ----- Original Message ----- From: Martin Schaible To: Scott Smith Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 2:38 PM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Rules ima Hi Scott, So you found a undocumented feature. I wouldn't use it until Ipswitch gives a statement to this.    ============================================ Am Freitag, 2.

But it is a good idea anyway. ============================================ Am Freitag, 2.
