Bob - Did it - Works great! would love to have a copy of the .bat file, cause I can
see this becoming tedious administratively. Thanks to you, Ken and the others for
help on this.

> Pat,
We do what you are mentioning. In each user's directory we have a virusbox.fwd that
is a forward rule for the routing the caught e-mail. In the .fwd file we have the
e-mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is an alias that routes to the virusbox
directory of the people we want to get the message. It works for us.
We also have a batch process that adds the virusbox.fwd entry to each user except the
users we want to receive the messages. If you want the .bat file I can send it. We
have the batch process scheduled to run nightly so new users have the forward rule
added to their directory.

____________________________________________________________I have in place a set of
inbound mail rules that dumps qualifying inbound traffic via the :nul box. It works
well, but I think its also catching legitimate traffic as well. Creating a mailbox
with a forward does send me a copy of all dumped mail, but also leaves a copy of it
behind in the individual user's box. I've had a few users discover their "extra"
mailbox that gets created via the web interface and have fortunately been able to stop
them from opening their "extra" mail (groan). Its only a matter of time before someone
activates one of these friggin' things....
I would like to have all of the suspect mail forwarded to a holding mailbox for
inspection and deleted from the user's source mailbox from whence it came. So far, no
dice.
Suggestions?
