You know, Dusty, I just knew that the answer was one I didn't want to hear.
I'm trying to stop a lot of our clients from getting SPAM and email attached
virus/trojans, but some of them just have forwards on their accounts. So,
it appears they are on their own -- not what I like.
Thanks for the response.
Bob

Unfortunately the mail is sent to the forward address
regardless of rules. Not a suitable solution in my opinion.
I actually would prefer that if a message gets filtered
by rules it does not even go to the users box yet it
get placed in a holding spool where an admin can make
a decision on whether to process the mail or trash it.
