Bob:

Just out of curiosity, could I see what you are using for your spam and
virus filter files (.fwd)

Could you send them to me off the list, my boss really wants these and you
could save me a bunch of time!

Thanks,

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.
